Product details
Overview
UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 from NXP Semiconductors is a LIN core System Basis Chip (SBC) integrating a LIN 2.2A/SAE J2602 transceiver, 5 V ±2 % voltage regulator delivering up to 250 mA, advanced independent watchdog with Window/Timeout/Off modes, full-duplex SPI interface, and dual local wake-up inputs - designed for automotive ECU power management and communication control in body electronics modules.
For engineers reviewing the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 datasheet, UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 pinout, UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 application, or UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 equivalent, key selection considerations include LIN bus fault tolerance (±58 V short-circuit proof), ISO 7637-3 transient protection, 6.1 mm × 11 mm HTSSOP32 thermal performance, wake-up source detection capability, and limp home output activation under system failure.
Technical Context
The UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 implements a state-machine-based system controller managing Off/Standby/Normal/Sleep/Overtemp mode transitions triggered by VBAT thresholds, wake events, or temperature conditions. Its LIN transceiver supports low-slope mode (10.4 kbit/s) for EMC optimization and includes integrated termination diode at DLIN.
Power management integrates V1 regulation with external PNP transistor support (VEXCTRL/VEXCC pins), programmable current threshold switching (50/85 mA activation/deactivation), and dual wake-up sampling (16 ms or 64 ms via WBIAS). The watchdog uses an on-chip oscillator independent of V1 and supports cyclic interrupt generation in Timeout mode.

Applications
| Body Control Module (BCM) | Seat Control Unit |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Centralized control of door locks, window lifts, mirrors, and interior lighting in passenger vehicles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 serves as primary power manager and LIN interface, regulating MCU supply and handling LIN bus arbitration and wake-up from sleep. Use Value: Enables <10 µA standby current with full wake-up capability, meeting OEM requirements for low-power vehicle-off states while maintaining fast response to door handle or key fob signals. |
Use Scenario: Motorized seat position adjustment with memory presets and heating control.

Use Value: Integrated ±58 V LIN bus protection prevents damage from load dump events during seat motor actuation; LIMP output directly disables motor drivers and activates thermal cutoffs. |
| Roof Module (Sunroof/Blind Control) | Trunk/Liftgate Actuator |
|
Use Scenario: Sunroof open/close, tilt, and anti-pinch functionality coordinated via LIN network. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 manages MCU power, detects LIN wake-up commands, and generates interrupt-driven responses to sunroof position sensors and obstruction signals. Use Value: SPI-configurable wake-up edge detection (rising/falling/both) allows precise synchronization with Hall-effect sensor pulses, eliminating false triggers during slow sunroof movement. |
Use Scenario: Power-operated liftgate with obstacle detection, soft-close, and hands-free kick-sensor interface. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 supplies 5 V to liftgate MCU, handles LIN commands from body domain, and asserts LIMP output upon motor current overload or thermal shutdown. Use Value: Undervoltage reset at 70 % V1 threshold ensures clean MCU restart during battery sag caused by simultaneous liftgate and HVAC operation - preventing firmware lockup. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LIN SBC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UJA1076ATW/5V0WD,1 | Single wake-up input (WAKE1 only); no LIMP output; identical LIN transceiver and 5 V regulator specs. | Lacks dual-wake capability and fail-safe limp home activation; suitable for cost-sensitive single-sensor nodes. | Select UJA1076ATW/5V0WD,1 only when dual wake-up and limp home are not required - reduces BOM count but sacrifices redundancy. |
| TLE9471-3ES | Includes CAN FD interface alongside LIN; higher V1 current (350 mA); different SPI register map and watchdog configuration logic. | Targets mixed-network ECUs requiring both LIN and CAN FD; larger TQFP48 package increases PCB footprint. | Choose TLE9471-3ES when CAN FD coexistence is needed; otherwise, UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 offers superior thermal efficiency and LIN-specific optimization in HTSSOP32. |
Compared with UJA1076ATW/5V0WD,1, the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 adds critical dual-wake support and limp home safety; versus TLE9471-3ES, it delivers lower thermal resistance and simpler SPI diagnostics for LIN-only designs - making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding body electronics.

FAQ
What LIN protocol versions does the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 support?
The UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 supports LIN 2.2A and SAE J2602 as primary standards, with full backward compatibility to LIN 2.2, LIN 2.1, LIN 2.0, and LIN 1.0–1.3. This ensures seamless integration into legacy and next-generation LIN networks without protocol translation layers or firmware updates.
How does the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 manage thermal dissipation for its 5 V regulator?
The UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 uses an external PNP transistor controlled via VEXCTRL and monitored via VEXCC to share current load and distribute heat across the PCB. Its HTSSOP32 package features an exposed die pad that must be soldered to ground for optimal thermal conduction - enabling continuous 250 mA operation at junction temperatures up to 150 °C.
Can the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 operate during automotive cranking conditions?
Yes, the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 maintains stable 5 V output down to 4.5 V VBAT, complying with ISO 16750-2 cranking profiles. Its V1 regulator remains active and delivers full 250 mA during voltage sags, and its undervoltage reset threshold can be configured to 70 % of nominal to prevent spurious resets during extended cranking events.
What is the function of the LIMP output on the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1?
The LIMP output on the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 is a fail-safe active-low signal that asserts LOW during Overtemperature Protection (OTP) activation or critical system faults. It directly controls external safety hardware - such as motor disable circuits or thermal cutoff relays - independent of MCU firmware execution, ensuring deterministic behavior under fault conditions.
Does the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 require external components for basic LIN transceiver operation?
No external components are required for basic LIN transceiver operation beyond the mandatory 1 kΩ pull-up resistor on the LIN bus line and standard decoupling capacitors on V1 and BAT. The UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 integrates the LIN termination diode at DLIN and supports low-slope mode internally - eliminating need for external slew-rate control components.
How is wake-up source detection implemented in the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1?
Wake-up source detection in the UJA1079ATW/5V0WD,1 is performed via dedicated WAKE1 and WAKE2 analog inputs with programmable edge sensitivity (rising/falling/both) and synchronized sampling using WBIAS. Status bits WLS1/WLS2 in the WD_and_Status register identify which input triggered wake-up, enabling precise root-cause diagnostics in Standby mode.
