Product details
Overview
TJA1462ATK/0Z from NXP Semiconductors is a CAN FD signal improvement transceiver with Standby mode, implementing ISO 11898-2:2024 parameter set C for SIC-enabled bus communication up to 8 Mbit/s. It operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V VCC and 2.95 V to 5.5 V VIO, features AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, and supports fail-safe undervoltage detection and thermal protection in automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the TJA1462ATK/0Z datasheet, TJA1462ATK/0Z pinout, TJA1462ATK/0Z application, or TJA1462ATK/0Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its CAN Signal Improvement Capability (SIC), 2 µA Standby current, HVSON8 package compatibility, and pin-to-pin replacement capability for legacy TJA1042/TJA1044 designs without hardware modification.
Technical Context
The TJA1462ATK/0Z implements a dual-receiver architecture: a low-power wake-up receiver active in Standby mode (powered by VIO) and a full-speed differential receiver active in Normal mode. Its SIC function actively suppresses signal ringing via optimized output slope control and internal biasing, enabling robust 8 Mbit/s CAN FD operation in electrically noisy or topologically complex networks.
Operating mode transitions are governed by precise undervoltage thresholds-Vuvd(stb)(VCC) = 4.0–4.5 V and Vuvd(swoff)(VIO) = 2.65–2.95 V-with gap-free behavior across supply ranges. Internal pull-ups on TXD and STB ensure defined logic states during floating conditions, while TXD dominant time-out (tto(dom)TXD) prevents bus lockup.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
HVSON8 package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.85 mm), leadless, thermally enhanced, with exposed center pad soldered to PCB ground for improved thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - TXD | Transmit Data Input | Digital input from CAN controller; internal 20–80 kΩ pull-up to VIO ensures defined HIGH state if left floating. |
| 2 - STB | Standby Mode Control | Active-HIGH digital input; internal pull-up to VIO enables automatic Standby entry on microcontroller reset or power loss. |
| 3 - GND | Ground Reference | Primary ground connection; die supply ground tied to both pin and exposed center pad for low-impedance return path. |
| 4 - RXD | Receive Data Output | Digital output to CAN controller; reflects bus state in Standby mode after wake-up detection, HIGH when recessive. |
| 5 - VIO | I/O Level Adapter Supply | Supplies TXD/RXD/STB logic levels and low-power wake-up receiver; allows VCC shutdown while maintaining bus monitoring. |
| 6 - CANL | CAN Bus Low Line | Analog I/O; biased to ground in Standby, driven differentially in Normal mode; protected to ±40 V common-mode. |
| 7 - CANH | CAN Bus High Line | Analog I/O; complementary to CANL; differential output voltage VO(dif) ≥1.5 V into 50–65 Ω load. |
| 8 - STB | Standby Mode Control | Duplicate reference - same as Pin 2; no functional duplication; confirms active-HIGH control logic. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| CAN Signal Improvement (SIC) | Reduces topology-induced signal ringing per ISO 11898-2:2024 parameter set C, enabling reliable 8 Mbit/s CAN FD in branched or long-drop networks. |

FAQ
What is the primary function of the VIO pin on the TJA1462ATK/0Z?
The VIO pin on the TJA1462ATK/0Z supplies the I/O level adapter circuitry and powers the low-power wake-up receiver. It sets the logic thresholds for TXD, RXD, and STB pins, enabling direct interfacing with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without external level shifters. Critically, it allows the wake-up receiver to remain active even when VCC is shut down-ensuring reliable bus monitoring during ultra-low-power vehicle sleep states. This functionality is exclusive to the TJA1462A variant, including the TJA1462ATK/0Z.
Does the TJA1462ATK/0Z support pin-to-pin replacement of the TJA1042?
Yes, the TJA1462ATK/0Z is explicitly designed as a pin-compatible replacement for the TJA1042 and TJA1044 transceivers. It shares identical HVSON8 pinout, VCC and GND placement, and CANH/CANL terminal positions. No PCB layout changes are required. However, the TJA1462ATK/0Z introduces the VIO pin (Pin 5), which must be connected to the MCU's I/O supply voltage-unlike the TJA1042, where Pin 5 is not connected. This single wiring update enables full backward compatibility with enhanced SIC and low-power features.
How does CAN Signal Improvement (SIC) enhance network performance in the TJA1462ATK/0Z?
CAN Signal Improvement (SIC) in the TJA1462ATK/0Z actively reduces signal ringing and reflections caused by impedance mismatches and stubs in complex automotive networks. Implemented per ISO 11898-2:2024 parameter set C, it achieves this through precisely controlled output slew rates and internal termination biasing. This enables reliable 8 Mbit/s CAN FD communication in topologies previously limited to ≤2 Mbit/s-such as those with multiple branches, long cable drops, or mixed-node impedance-without requiring external passive components or network re-engineering.
What wake-up capabilities does the TJA1462ATK/0Z provide in Standby mode?
In Standby mode, the TJA1462ATK/0Z supports bus-initiated wake-up via ISO 11898-2:2024-compliant dominant-recessive-dominant patterns on CANH/CANL, with filter time configurable between 0.5 μs and 1.8 μs. The low-power receiver is powered by VIO, allowing wake-up detection even when VCC is off. Upon pattern recognition, RXD transitions LOW within tstartup(RXD), signaling the host MCU. No external wake-up line is needed-the TJA1462ATK/0Z fully manages detection, filtering, and assertion without MCU intervention.
Is the TJA1462ATK/0Z qualified for automotive use, and what standards does it meet?
Yes, the TJA1462ATK/0Z is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C ambient), with junction temperature rated to +150 °C. It complies with ISO 11898-2:2024 (parameter sets A–C), SAE J2284-1 to J2284-5, and SAE J1939-14. It also meets stringent automotive EMC requirements: ±6 kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD, ±75 V ISO 7637-2 Pulse 3b transient immunity, and low EME/EMI per CISPR 25 Class 5. These qualifications make it suitable for safety-critical automotive domains including powertrain, chassis, and ADAS.
