Product details
Overview
UJA1078TW/3V3,112 from NXP Semiconductors is a core System Basis Chip (SBC) integrating a high-speed CAN transceiver (ISO 11898-2/5 compliant), two LIN 2.1 transceivers (SAE J2602 compliant), a 3.3 V/250 mA microcontroller voltage regulator, a dedicated 5 V CAN transceiver regulator, and SPI-based system control - deployed in automotive ECU power and communication subsystems for engine control modules and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the UJA1078TW/3V3,112 datasheet, UJA1078TW/3V3,112 pinout, UJA1078TW/3V3,112 application, or UJA1078TW/3V3,112 equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-LIN wake-up capability, 3.3 V regulator accuracy (±2 % for LIN master), ±58 V bus short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown behavior, and HTSSOP32 package compatibility with automotive PCB layout constraints.
Technical Context
The UJA1078TW/3V3,112 implements a state-machine-based system controller managing Off/Standby/Normal/Sleep/Overtemp mode transitions triggered by VBAT thresholds, wake events (CAN/LIN/WAKE1/WAKE2), or temperature excursions. Its SPI interface (full-duplex, SCSN/SCK/SDI/SDO) enables register-level configuration of watchdog timing (128 ms default), LIN slope (10.4/20 kbit/s), and V1/V2 undervoltage reset thresholds (90 % or 70 %).
Power architecture separates V1 (3.3 V, 250 mA, ±2 % for LIN master) and V2 (5 V, CAN-only) regulators with independent undervoltage monitoring and external PNP extension support via VEXCTRL/VEXCC pins. The CAN transceiver includes SPLIT output for recessive bus stabilization and floating bus pins in power-off state, while both LIN transceivers integrate termination diodes (DLIN pin) and low-slope EMC optimization.

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage and accuracy of the main regulator in UJA1078TW/3V3,112?
The UJA1078TW/3V3,112 features a 3.3 V main regulator (V1) with ±2 % output accuracy specified for LIN master applications and ±3 % for LIN slave use cases. This precision ensures reliable timing for LIN protocol compliance and stable MCU operation under load variations and temperature extremes from −40 °C to 150 °C junction temperature.
Does UJA1078TW/3V3,112 include a watchdog timer, and how is it configured?
Yes, the UJA1078TW/3V3,112 includes a programmable watchdog with Window, Timeout, and Off modes controlled via the WD_and_Status register. Its period is set using bits NWP (default 128 ms), and it is clocked by an on-chip oscillator independent of V1/V2. The WDOFF pin provides hardware disable capability, and watchdog triggers reset the internal timer on any register write to that register.
How does UJA1078TW/3V3,112 handle thermal faults, and what is the role of the LIMP pin?
When the UJA1078TW/3V3,112 junction temperature exceeds the overtemperature protection threshold (Tth(act)otp), it enters Overtemp mode: V1/V2 regulators shut down, bus transceivers go high-impedance, and the LIMP pin is driven LOW. This active-low signal directly activates external fail-safe hardware (e.g., mechanical valve defaults or fan overrides), ensuring safe degradation without software intervention.
Can UJA1078TW/3V3,112 support remote firmware updates, and which interface enables this?
Yes, the UJA1078TW/3V3,112 supports remote flash programming via the high-speed CAN bus. Its integrated CAN transceiver (ISO 11898-2/5 compliant) handles physical layer communication, while the SPI interface configures boot mode and monitors update progress. This enables over-the-air (OTA) updates for ECUs without requiring physical access or additional debug interfaces.
What package type and thermal characteristics does UJA1078TW/3V3,112 use?
The UJA1078TW/3V3,112 uses the HTSSOP32 (SOT549-1) package: 6.1 mm × 11 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, with an exposed die pad for enhanced thermal conduction. This construction achieves significantly lower thermal resistance than standard SOIC packages, supporting continuous operation at 105 °C ambient in engine compartment placements.
