TCAN1042HDRBRQ1

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The TCAN1042HDRBRQ1 is an automotive-grade, fault-protected CAN transceiver from Texas Instruments. It supports high-speed communication at a data rate of 2 Mb/s and operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. The device is qualified under AEC-Q100 standards and functions reliably across an extended temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Packaged in an 8-pin SON format with dimensions of 3 mm length, it integrates one driver and one receiver. Key electrical characteristics include a propagation delay of 65 ns for the transmitter and 75 ns for the receiver, with a typical power dissipation of 124 mW.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides robust bus fault protection capable of withstanding up to 70 V on the bus lines.
• Supports flexible data-rate (FDCAN) capabilities for backward compatibility with standard CAN protocols.
• Features fail-safe mechanisms that ensure a defined recessive bus state during error conditions or power loss.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Automotive body control modules requiring reliable CAN communication.
• Infotainment systems needing fault-tolerant interface solutions.
• Sensor nodes in vehicle networks operating under harsh environmental conditions.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RBR' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check moisture sensitivity level ratings before storage. Confirm AEC-Q100 qualification status for automotive integration requirements.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring 2 Mb/s high-speed CAN connectivity with enhanced fault protection. Compare against the TCAN1042GDRBRQ1 if higher 5 Mb/s speeds are necessary. Consider the TCAN1042HVDRG4 for non-automotive applications where AEC-Q100 certification is not mandatory.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the TCAN1042H family of CAN transceivers designed for automotive environments. It complements other variants like the TCAN1042GDRBRQ1 by offering optimized performance for high-speed networks. The series emphasizes durability and signal integrity in electrically noisy vehicle architectures.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The TCAN1042GDRBRQ1 serves as a functional alternative within the same family, differing primarily in maximum data rate support. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
