MCP2561-H/MF

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MCP2561-H/MF is a high-speed CAN transceiver from Microchip Technology, designed for automotive and industrial applications. It supports data rates up to 1 Mb/s and operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to +150°C. The device features a SPLIT pin for common mode stabilization in biased split-termination schemes. Electrical characteristics include a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V for VDD and 1.8V to 5.5V for VIO (internally connected to VDD in this model). Standby current is typically 5 µA. It provides high ESD protection on CANH and CANL pins, meeting IEC61000-4-2 standards up to ±14 kV.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed CAN communication with data rates up to 1 Mb/s
• Includes a SPLIT output pin to stabilize common mode in biased split-termination schemes
• Features very low standby current consumption for power efficiency
• Provides high electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection on bus lines

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Automotive electronic control units (ECUs)
• Industrial automation systems requiring robust CAN interfaces
• Network nodes needing operation in harsh thermal environments

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's product identification system to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm that the component meets all relevant automotive design requirements and RoHS compliance standards before integration into production designs.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with microcontrollers operating at standard 5V logic levels or when utilizing biased split termination networks. Ensure the application environment stays within the specified -40°C to +150°C operating range and requires single-transceiver functionality rather than dual-channel solutions.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP2561/2 family of second-generation high-speed CAN transceivers. It serves as the physical layer interface between CAN protocol controllers and the two-wire CAN bus, offering fault tolerance and electromagnetic compatibility suitable for demanding automotive and industrial network topologies.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MCP2561-E/MF offers identical functionality but with a lower operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Verify if the extended temperature capability of the -H suffix is strictly required for the target application environment.
