Microchip CAN Transceiver MCP2551-I/P 1 Mbps, 8-Pin PDIP, ISO 11898, Through-Hole

Microchip presents the MCP2551-I/P CAN Transceiver, an advanced communication IC designed to interface CAN controllers with differential CAN bus physical layers, fully compatible with the ISO 11898 standard. This device operates at speeds up to 1 Mbps, enabling fast and reliable data transfer for modern automotive, industrial, and commercial control networks. Its robust differential transmit and receive functions ensure reliable operation in electrically noisy environments.

The MCP2551-I/P uses an 8-pin PDIP package, providing through-hole mount convenience for easy integration into PCBs. With a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V, the device is suitable for both 12 V and 24 V CAN systems, making it versatile for many vehicle and industrial network applications. Its externally adjustable slope control input reduces radio frequency interference, assisting in compliance with EMC requirements.

Supporting power-down modes, including standby and sleep, the MCP2551-I/P draws minimal quiescent current, making it ideal for battery-powered or energy-efficient designs. ESD protection and high noise immunity further enhance its reliability, ensuring robust performance in demanding environments.

Key technical features include an operational temperature range of minus 40 degrees Celsius to plus 85 degrees Celsius, compatibility with ISO 11898 physical layer requirements, and an 8-pin PDIP package for secure, through-hole mounting. Permanent dominant detect, low-current standby operation, and externally controlled slope are among advanced engineering features built into the MCP2551-I/P.

Typical use cases include automotive CAN bus networks, industrial automation systems, process control, building automation, and applications requiring reliable, high-speed communications between modules or nodes.
