MLX80050KDC-CAA-000-RE

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MLX80050KDC-CAA-000-RE is a LIN System Basis IC from Melexis, designed for automotive slave nodes. It integrates a linear low-drop voltage regulator providing 5V at 70mA with ±2% accuracy, alongside a LIN bus transceiver compliant with LIN 2.x and SAE J2602 standards. The device supports an operating supply voltage (VSUP) of 5 to 27 V and features three operational modes: Normal, Silent, and Sleep. Key electrical parameters include a sleep mode current of 20 µA and a silent mode 'noload' current of 45 µA. The integrated transceiver supports baud rates up to 20 kBaud with slew rate control. It includes a programmable window watchdog, undervoltage detection, and over-temperature shutdown, functioning within an automotive temperature range of –40°C to 125°C in an SOIC-8 package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrates a 5V/70mA linear low-drop voltage regulator with precise output stability.
• Features a LIN 2.x / SAE J2602 compliant transceiver with configurable slew rates for optimized electromagnetic emissions.
• Includes a programmable window watchdog unit for system monitoring and reset generation.
• Provides robust protection against load dump, ESD, and thermal overload.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Automotive LIN bus slave nodes
• Body control modules
• Sensor and actuator interfaces

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix CAA-100-RE to confirm the inclusion of Silent Mode functionality and Reel packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with the required SOIC-8 footprint and automotive qualification standards before integration into final designs.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5V regulated supply and LIN communication are required in a single package. Compare with the MLX80030 series if a 3.3V regulator is needed instead. Note that the MLX80050 lacks the enhanced wake-up inputs and INH outputs found in the MLX80051 variant.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MLX8005x family of LIN System Basis ICs. It shares the core architecture with the MLX80051 but omits the additional WAKE, KL15, and INH pins. It serves as a cost-effective solution for basic LIN applications requiring integrated power regulation and bus connectivity.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify cross-compatibility with MLX80050 variants differing only in tape-and-reel specifications or regional compliance markings.
