MLX81106KDC-CAA-000-RE

Application Specific Microcontrollers Overview

The MLX81106KDC-CAA-000-RE is a fully integrated LIN slave controller designed for automotive switch and PWM applications. It combines a physical layer LIN transceiver, a LIN protocol controller compliant with LIN 2.x and SAE J2602 standards, and a 16-bit RISC microcontroller on a single die. The device features four programmable constant current outputs capable of driving up to four LEDs directly, with maximum currents configurable via internal Flash memory. It includes 24 kByte of user Flash, 384 Byte of EEPROM with ECC, and 1 kByte of RAM. The component operates within a battery supply voltage range of 5.5 V to 18 V and supports an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CAA' against official Melexis documentation to confirm pinout and package variations. Ensure compatibility with the target LIN baud rate and voltage requirements before integration. Confirm AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certification status for the specific lot.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring four independent constant current outputs with integrated LIN communication. Compare memory sizes with the MLX81108 if larger program storage (32 kByte) is required. Consider the QFN package options (MLX81107/9) if board space constraints necessitate a smaller footprint than the SOIC-8 package.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

This component belongs to the MLX8110x series of Micro/Mini LIN slave controllers from Melexis. It is part of a family that includes variants with different memory configurations and I/O counts, such as the MLX81107, MLX81108, and MLX81109, which share similar core functionalities but differ in package type and memory capacity.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include MLX81107, MLX81108, and MLX81109. Verify pin compatibility and memory requirements when substituting. For higher channel counts, consider the MLX81115 or MLX81116.
