TJA1044
High-speed CAN transceiver with Standby mode
7.3.2 Internal biasing of TXD and STB input pins
Pins TXD and STB have internal pull-ups to V
CC
(V
IO
for variants with a V
IO
pin) to ensure
a safe, defined state in case one or both of these pins are left floating. Pull-up currents
flow in these pins in all states; both pins should be held HIGH in Standby mode to
minimize supply current.
7.3.3 Undervoltage detection on pins V
CC
and V
IO
If V
CC
drops below the standby undervoltage detection level, V
uvd(stb)(VCC)
, the transceiver
switches to Standby mode. The logic state of pin STB is ignored until V
CC
has recovered.
In versions with a V
IO
pin, if V
IO
drops below the switch-off undervoltage detection level
(V
uvd(swoff)(VIO)
), the transceiver switches off and disengages from the bus (zero load) until
V
IO
has recovered.
In versions without a V
IO
pin, if V
CC
drops below the switch-off undervoltage detection
level (V
uvd(swoff)(VCC)
), the transceiver switches off and disengages from the bus (zero
load) until V
CC
has recovered.
7.3.4 Overtemperature protection
The output drivers are protected against overtemperature conditions. If the virtual junction
temperature exceeds the shutdown junction temperature, T
j(sd)
, both output drivers are
disabled. When the virtual junction temperature drops below T
j(sd)
again, the output
drivers recover once TXD has been reset to HIGH. Including the TXD condition prevents
output driver oscillation due to small variations in temperature.
7.4 V
IO
supply pin (TJA1044x/3 variants)
Pin V
IO
should be connected to the microcontroller supply voltage (see Figure 7). This will
adjust the signal levels of pins TXD, RXD and STB to the I/O levels of the microcontroller.
Pin V
IO
also provides the internal supply voltage for the low-power differential receiver in
the transceiver. For applications running in low-power mode, this allows the bus lines to
be monitored for activity even if there is no supply voltage on pin V
CC
.
For variants of the TJA1044 without a V
IO
pin, all circuitry is connected to V
CC
(pin 5 is not
bonded). The signal levels of pins TXD, RXD and STB are then compatible with 5 V
microcontrollers. This allows the device to interface with both 3.3 V and 5 V-supplied
microcontrollers, provided the microcontroller I/Os are 5 V tolerant.
