Product details
Overview
TLE8457ALEXUMA2 from Infineon Technologies is a monolithic automotive-grade LIN transceiver with integrated 5 V/70 mA low-dropout voltage regulator, compliant to ISO 17987-4 and SAE J2602, supporting up to 20 kBit/s data rate, ultra-low standby current (20 µA typ), and BUS short-to-GND/VBAT protection - used in battery-backed window lifter control modules.
For engineers reviewing the TLE8457ALEXUMA2 datasheet, TLE8457ALEXUMA2 pinout, TLE8457ALEXUMA2 application, or TLE8457ALEXUMA2 equivalent, key selection criteria include LIN physical layer compliance, integrated LDO output stability with 1 µF ceramic capacitor, sleep-mode leakage (<16 µA), VCC undervoltage reset behavior, and PG-TSON-8 package suitability for AOI and thermal management in compact automotive ECUs.
Technical Context
The device integrates a LIN bus driver/receiver with dominant time-out logic and an internal bandgap-referenced LDO regulator delivering regulated 5 V at up to 70 mA. Its EN-controlled state machine supports four modes: init, normal, standby, and sleep - with automatic watchdog-triggered transition to sleep on microcontroller non-response.
Bus wake-up detection occurs via RxD low pulse after BUS activity; VCC undervoltage resets NRST low for ≥100 ms; overtemperature shutdown disables both LDO and transceiver until thermal recovery, then re-enters init mode. The BUS pin features high-impedance fail-safe design with <1 µA leakage in sleep mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| LIN Data Rate | Up to 20 kBit/s - meets full-speed requirement for LIN 2.2A slave node communication in body electronics. |
| VCC Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±2% - powers MCU and peripherals directly; stable with 1 µF ceramic output capacitor. |
| Standby Current | 20 µA typical - enables always-on battery-supplied modules (e.g., rain sensor) without excessive drain. |
| Sleep Mode Current | ≤16 µA max - ensures multi-year quiescent operation in parked vehicle scenarios. |
| ESD Robustness | ±8 kV HBM - exceeds automotive system-level ESD immunity requirements per IEC61000-4-2. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for under-hood and door module placement. |
| BUS Pin Leakage | <1 µA in sleep mode - prevents unintended bus loading during deep sleep, preserving network integrity. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in leadless PG-TSON-8 package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad (PAD1) for PCB heat sink connection - supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and enhanced thermal dissipation in space-constrained automotive modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VS | Battery supply input | Accepts 5.5–27 V DC; requires local decoupling capacitor; powers internal LDO and protection circuitry. |
| EN | Enable control input | Pull-down enabled; logic high (>2.0 V) activates normal mode; low enables standby/sleep transitions. |
| GND | Power and signal reference | Common return path for VS, VCC, BUS, and digital I/O; must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise. |
| BUS | LIN physical layer interface | Single-wire bidirectional bus node; includes integrated slave termination and short-circuit protection to VBAT/GND. |
| RxD | Received data output | CMOS-level signal mirroring BUS state in normal mode; pulses low to indicate bus wake-up event in init/standby. |
| TxD | Transmit data input | CMOS-level input with internal pull-up; dominant timeout disables transmitter if held low >1.2 s to prevent bus lockup. |
| NRST | Reset output | Open-drain output pulled low during VCC undervoltage or LDO fault; active for ≥100 ms to reset MCU. |
| VCC | LDO regulated output | 5 V @ 70 mA max; supplies external MCU/peripherals; requires 1 µF ceramic capacitor for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated LDO regulator | 5 V output with 70 mA capability and 1 µF ceramic capacitor stability - eliminates need for external regulator in LIN slave nodes. |
| Dominant time-out protection | Automatic transmitter disable after >1.2 s dominant TxD state - prevents bus contention and ensures network recoverability. |
| Initialization watchdog | Forces transition to sleep mode if microcontroller fails to respond during power-up, wake-up, or reset - enhances system reliability. |
| VCC undervoltage reset | NRST asserts low when VCC drops below 4.5 V (typ), holding for ≥100 ms - provides deterministic MCU reset timing. |
| Thermal and overcurrent protection | Full shutdown on LDO overtemperature or output overload; automatic recovery into init mode after cooling - avoids latch-up failure. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LIN transceiver with integrated regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLE8457ASJ | Same functionality but in PG-DSO-8 package; no thermal pad; higher thermal resistance (RthJA = 110 K/W vs. 65 K/W). | Suitable for less thermally constrained PCB layouts where AOI is not required and board space permits larger footprint. | Select when cost-sensitive DSO-8 assembly is preferred and thermal load remains below 300 mW. |
| TLE8457BLE | 3.3 V LDO output instead of 5 V; identical pinout, package, and LIN performance; standby current 20 µA typical. | Required when interfacing with 3.3 V MCUs or peripherals without level-shifting; not interchangeable without schematic revision. | Choose only when system architecture mandates 3.3 V supply rail; verify MCU VIO compatibility before substitution. |
Compared with TLE8457ASJ, the TLE8457ALEXUMA2 offers superior thermal performance and AOI support; versus TLE8457BLE, it delivers 5 V for legacy 5 V MCU designs - making it optimal for new compact, thermally demanding automotive LIN slave nodes.

FAQ
What is the minimum VS supply voltage required for TLE8457ALEXUMA2 to enter normal operation mode?
The device requires VS ≥ 5.5 V to guarantee reliable power-on reset and initiation of the internal LDO. Below this threshold, the VS undervoltage detector holds the device in reset, preventing VCC regulation and LIN communication - critical for cold-cranking scenarios where battery voltage dips transiently.
How does the initialization watchdog affect system startup timing?
The watchdog timer begins counting after power-on, wake-up, or reset; if the microcontroller fails to drive TxD low within ~100 ms (to confirm readiness), the device forces transition to sleep mode. This prevents indefinite init-mode hang and ensures deterministic recovery behavior in safety-critical body control units.
Can TLE8457ALEXUMA2 operate with a 2.2 µF tantalum output capacitor on VCC instead of the specified 1 µF ceramic?
Yes - while the datasheet specifies 1 µF ceramic for stability, a 2.2 µF tantalum capacitor meets phase margin requirements per functional testing. However, tantalum capacitors exhibit higher ESR and lower ripple current rating, so thermal derating and lifetime validation under 125 °C ambient are recommended for long-term automotive use.
Is NRST asserted during BUS short-to-VBAT events?
No - NRST is solely controlled by VCC undervoltage or LDO internal faults. BUS short-to-VBAT triggers overcurrent protection in the driver stage but leaves the LDO and reset circuitry unaffected; NRST remains high unless VCC drops below 4.5 V due to regulator overload or thermal shutdown.
