7.3.8.5 Floating Terminals

The TCAN1473-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 7-3 for the pin fail-safe biasing protection description.

Table 7-3 Pin Fail-safe Biasing
PINFAIL-SAFE PROTECTIONVALUECOMMENT
TXDRecessive level60kΩWeak pull-up to VIO
ENLow-power modeWeak pull-down to GND
nSTBLow-power modeWeak 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 TCAN1473-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.
