Product details
Overview
UJA1079TW/5V0,112 from NXP Semiconductors is a LIN 2.1–compliant System Basis Chip (SBC) integrating a 5 V/250 mA voltage regulator, LIN transceiver, advanced watchdog, SPI interface, dual local wake-up inputs, and limp-home output - designed for automotive ECU power management and communication control in body electronics and sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the UJA1079TW/5V0,112 datasheet, UJA1079TW/5V0,112 pinout, UJA1079TW/5V0,112 application, or UJA1079TW/5V0,112 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional roles, HTSSOP32 package mapping, LIN bus protection specs (±58 V short-circuit, ±8 kV HBM), regulator accuracy (±2 % for master mode), and wake-up source detection behavior critical for automotive ECU design validation.
Technical Context
The UJA1079TW/5V0,112 implements a state-machine-based system controller managing Off/Standby/Normal/Sleep/Overtemp modes with deterministic transitions triggered by VBAT thresholds, LIN activity, or local wake events. Its LIN transceiver supports low-slope mode (10.4 kbit/s) for EMC optimization and includes integrated termination diode at DLIN.
Power management combines V1 regulation (5 V ±2 %), external PNP transistor support with programmable activation thresholds (50/85 mA), and dual wake biasing (WBIAS) with selectable 16 ms or 64 ms sampling. The watchdog uses an independent on-chip oscillator and supports Window/Timeout/Off modes via WMC bit and WDOFF pin control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| LIN Compliance | LIN 2.1, SAE J2602, backward-compatible with LIN 2.0 and LIN 1.3 - ensures interoperability across legacy and modern automotive sub-bus networks. |
| Voltage Regulator (V1) | 5 V output, ±2 % accuracy in LIN master mode, 250 mA max continuous current - powers microcontroller and peripherals without external LDO in most body control modules. |
| ESD Protection | ±8 kV HBM on LIN and wake pins, ±6 kV IEC 61000-4-2 - meets automotive EMC requirements for harsh vehicle environments. |
| Short-Circuit Tolerance | ±58 V on LIN bus pin - survives load-dump and jump-start transients per ISO 7637-3 without external clamping. |
| Watchdog Modes | Window, Timeout, and Off modes with programmable period (8–4096 ms); independent on-chip oscillator - enables fail-safe timing supervision independent of MCU clock stability. |
| SPI Interface | 16-bit full-duplex SPI with read-only register access - allows real-time status reporting (e.g., wake source, V1 undervoltage, overtemperature) without corrupting configuration registers. |
| Thermal Package | HTSSOP32 (SOT549-1), 6.1 mm × 11 mm, exposed die pad - provides low thermal resistance for sustained 250 mA operation in compact ECU layouts. |
Pinout & Package
UJA1079TW/5V0,112 is housed in a 32-pin HTSSOP (SOT549-1) package with 0.65 mm pitch and exposed thermal pad. The package supports PCB-level heat dissipation and complies with RoHS and dark green standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1 (Pin 4) | Regulated output supply | 5 V ±2 % output powering MCU core and peripherals; supports external PNP extension for >250 mA loads with distributed thermal handling. |
| LIN (Pin 25) | LIN bus line interface | Direct connection to LIN physical bus; internally protected against ±58 V shorts and ±8 kV ESD - eliminates need for discrete TVS on bus line. |
| RSTN (Pin 6) | Bidirectional reset I/O | Drives LOW during internal resets (V1 UV, watchdog overflow, overtemp); accepts external LOW pulse for forced system reset - enables coordinated ECU power sequencing. |
| WAKE1 / WAKE2 (Pins 18, 19) | Local wake-up inputs | Detect switch closures or sensor signals; support configurable edge-triggered interrupts and synchronized sampling via WBIAS - reduces standby current in always-on sensor nodes. |
| LIMP (Pin 17) | Limp-home control output | Drives LOW during overtemperature or critical fault to activate fail-safe hardware (e.g., mechanical valve hold-open) - provides ASIL-B–aligned safety response without MCU involvement. |
| WDOFF (Pin 16) | Watchdog disable control | Hardware-disable input: HIGH forces watchdog OFF regardless of register settings - enables safe debug mode or MCU-initiated watchdog suspension. |
| VEXCTRL / VEXCC (Pins 31, 29) | External PNP control | VEXCTRL drives base of external PNP; VEXCC measures collector current - enables precise current-sharing control between internal regulator and external transistor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Advanced low-power concept | Standby current < 100 µA and Sleep current < 20 µA with full wake-up capability - extends battery life in always-on automotive modules (e.g., door modules, seat controllers). |
| Safe system start-up | Controlled power-on reset with programmable pulse width and VBAT threshold detection (Vth(det)pon) - prevents MCU lock-up during cranking (VBAT ≥ 4.5 V per ISO 16750-2). |
| Detailed status reporting | Register-mapped diagnostics including V1S (undervoltage), WLS1/WLS2 (wake source), and INT_STATUS bits - enables root-cause analysis of wake events and power faults without oscilloscope probing. |
| Integrated LIN termination | On-chip diode at DLIN (Pin 26) - eliminates one external component and ensures consistent bus termination impedance across temperature and voltage. |
| Fail-safe enable output | EN (Pin 8) driven HIGH only in Normal mode when ENC = 1 - prevents unintended activation of safety-critical actuators during boot or fault states. |
