SLLSFD1E January 2021 – March 2023 TCAN1043A-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TCAN1043A-Q1 has internal pull-ups and pull-downs on critical pins to make sure a known operating behavior if the pins are left floating. See Table 8-3 for the pin fail-safe biasing protection description.
PIN | FAIL-SAFE PROTECTION | VALUE | COMMENT |
---|---|---|---|
TXD | Recessive level | 60 kΩ | Weak pull-up to VIO |
EN | Low-power mode | Weak pull-down to GND | |
nSTB | Low-power mode | Weak pull-down to GND |
This internal bias should not be relied upon by design but rather a fail-safe option. Special care needs to be taken when the transceiver is used with a CAN FD controller that has open-drain outputs. The TCAN1043A-Q1 implements a weak internal pull-up resistor on the TXD pin. The bit timing requirements for CAN FD data rates require special consideration and the pull-up strength should be considered carefully when using open-drain outputs. An adequate external pull-up resistor must be used to make sure the TXD output of the CAN FD controller maintains proper bit timing input to the CAN device.
