FAQ
What is the maximum ambient temperature rating for the S912ZVC96F0MKHR?
The S912ZVC96F0MKHR is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 0 with a maximum ambient operating temperature of +150°C. This rating is validated across full electrical specifications and applies to both continuous operation and transient thermal conditions typical in engine compartment and exhaust aftertreatment environments. The S912ZVC96F0MKHR maintains functional integrity without derating at this temperature.
Does the S912ZVC96F0MKHR include an integrated CAN transceiver?
Yes, the S912ZVC96F0MKHR integrates a fully compliant ISO 11898-2/3 CAN physical layer alongside the MSCAN controller. This eliminates the need for an external CAN transceiver IC, associated termination resistors, and ESD protection components. The S912ZVC96F0MKHR's CANH and CANL pins connect directly to the CAN bus, reducing board area and system cost.
What power supply configurations does the S912ZVC96F0MKHR support?
The S912ZVC96F0MKHR supports direct connection to a 5.5–18 V automotive battery. It includes an on-chip 12 V/70 mA regulator for powering external sensors or actuators, and a dedicated EVDD pin (5 V/20 mA source) for low-noise analog circuitry. The S912ZVC96F0MKHR requires no external pre-regulator for core operation.
How many high-voltage input (HVI) pins does the S912ZVC96F0MKHR have, and what is their function?
The S912ZVC96F0MKHR has two HVI pins (HVI0 and HVI1), each capable of direct connection to 12 V battery or switched loads. They provide wake-up capability, diagnostic monitoring, and voltage-level detection without external resistive dividers. These pins are electrically isolated from core logic and support fail-safe input sampling in safety-critical applications like crash sensors.
Is SENT protocol support available on the S912ZVC96F0MKHR, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the S912ZVC96F0MKHR includes a hardware SENT-Tx peripheral compliant with SAE J2716 rev 3.0. It generates Manchester-encoded, CRC-protected digital sensor output on a single wire with programmable pulse width resolution. The SENT-Tx module operates independently of CPU load, ensuring deterministic timing - a critical feature for the S912ZVC96F0MKHR in ultrasonic and exhaust gas sensor applications.
