TCAN1042HGVDQ1

Overview

The TCAN1042HGVDQ1 is an automotive-grade, high-speed CAN transceiver manufactured by Texas Instruments. It supports flexible data-rate (CAN FD) protocols with a maximum bit rate of 5 Mbps. The device features robust bus-fault protection capable of withstanding up to 70 V on the bus lines. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and is qualified under AEC-Q100 standards for automotive applications. The component is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package and is designed to function reliably across an extended junction temperature range from -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrated 70-V bus fault protection for enhanced network durability
• Supports Flexible Data-Rate (CAN FD) protocol specifications
• AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive reliability requirements

Applications

• Automotive body control modules
• Infotainment system gateways
• Sensor nodes in vehicle networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'V' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm pinout or functional variations, as standard datasheets may not explicitly detail this variant's unique characteristics. Ensure the source provides the authoritative datasheet for the exact part number to avoid integration errors due to potential packaging or specification differences.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring high-speed CAN communication with integrated overvoltage protection. The 8-SOIC package suits space-constrained PCB layouts. Confirm that the 70-V fault tolerance meets the specific electrical stress conditions of the target vehicle network architecture before finalizing the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TCAN1042HG family of high-speed CAN transceivers. It shares core functionalities with variants like the TCAN1042HGDQ1 but differs in the specific suffix designation. The family is characterized by its fault protection capabilities and compliance with automotive quality standards, serving as a critical interface between microcontrollers and the CAN bus.

Replacement Considerations

The TCAN1042HGDQ1 is a closely related variant within the same product family. Verify if the 'V' suffix indicates a distinct revision or packaging option before substituting. Cross-reference the pinout and electrical parameters with the official datasheet to ensure compatibility.
