Overview
UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 from NXP Semiconductors is a LIN core System Basis Chip (SBC) integrating a LIN 2.2A/SAE J2602 transceiver, 3.3 V ±2 % voltage regulator delivering up to 250 mA, advanced window/timeout watchdog, SPI interface, dual local wake-up inputs, and limp home output - designed for automotive ECU power management and communication control in body electronics modules.
For engineers reviewing the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 datasheet, UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 pinout, UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 application, or UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 equivalent, this SBC provides verified LIN bus compliance, configurable wake-up source detection, thermal shutdown protection, ISO 7637-3 transient immunity on LIN, and scalable microcontroller supply with external PNP extension capability.
Technical Context
The UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 implements a state-machine-based system controller managing Off/Standby/Normal/Sleep/Overtemp modes with deterministic transitions triggered by VBAT thresholds, wake events, or software commands. Its LIN transceiver supports low-slope mode (10.4 kbit/s) for EMC optimization and includes integrated termination diode at DLIN.
Power management features include dual wake-up inputs (WAKE1/WAKE2) with selectable 16 ms/64 ms sampling via WBIAS, V1 undervoltage warning at 90 % nominal output, reset threshold configurable to 90 % or 70 % V1, and overtemperature shutdown with limp home activation. The watchdog uses an independent on-chip oscillator and supports Window, Timeout, and Off modes with programmable periods from 8 ms to 4096 ms.

FAQ
What LIN protocol versions does the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 support?
The UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 supports LIN 2.2A and SAE J2602, and is backward compatible with LIN 2.2, LIN 2.1, LIN 2.0, LIN 1.3, LIN 1.2, LIN 1.1, and LIN 1.0. It implements low-slope mode for optimized EMC performance at 10.4 kbit/s and standard slope at 20 kbit/s, both fully compliant with the LIN specification stack.
Does the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 include a watchdog, and how is it configured?
Yes, the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 includes an advanced independent watchdog with Window, Timeout, and Off modes. It is clocked by an on-chip oscillator independent of V1. Configuration is performed via the WD_and_Status register using bits WMC and NWP; the default watchdog period is 128 ms. Pin WDOFF provides hardware disable capability, and the watchdog can be re-enabled by interrupt or software reset.
How does the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 manage power during vehicle key-off conditions?
The UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 supports ultra-low-power Standby and Sleep modes. In Standby mode, V1 remains active while LIN transceiver enters Lowpower mode with wake-up detection enabled. In Sleep mode, V1 is disabled and LIN is switched off, achieving sub-100 µA quiescent current. Wake-up is supported via LIN bus activity or local inputs WAKE1/WAKE2, with configurable sampling via WBIAS to minimize leakage.
Can the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 supply more than 250 mA to the microcontroller?
Yes, the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1's 3.3 V regulator delivers up to 250 mA internally, and supports extension with an external PNP transistor connected via VEXCTRL and VEXCC pins. The current threshold for activating the external transistor is programmable (85 mA/50 mA rising/falling or 50 mA/15 mA), enabling scalable current delivery while distributing thermal load across the PCB.
What protection features are built into the UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 LIN bus interface?
The UJA1079ATW/3V3WD,1 LIN bus interface includes ±58 V short-circuit protection on the LIN pin, transient protection per ISO 7637-3, ±8 kV HBM and ±6 kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection, and integrated termination diode at DLIN. These features eliminate the need for external protection components in most automotive environments and ensure robust operation under load dump and ESD stress conditions.
