MCP2551-I/P Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MCP2551-I/P from Microchip Technology is a high-speed, fault-tolerant CAN transceiver that interfaces between a CAN protocol controller and the physical bus. It supports operation at speeds up to 1 Mb/s and is fully compatible with the ISO-11898 standard, including 24V requirements. This device is suitable for both 12V and 24V systems.

 

Key features include externally-controlled slope for reduced RFI emissions, detection of ground faults, power-on reset, and protection against short-circuit conditions and high-voltage transients. It also offers automatic thermal shutdown protection. The transceiver can support up to 112 nodes on the bus and provides high-noise immunity due to its differential bus implementation.

 

The MCP2551-I/P is available in an 8-PDIP package and is designed for through-hole mounting. It operates within a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. An unpowered node or brown-out event will not disturb the CAN bus, ensuring system stability.

 

This transceiver is ideal for applications requiring reliable communication over a CAN bus, such as automotive systems, industrial automation, and embedded control systems where noise and electrical transients are common.
