Exact-Part Selection Insight
The exact transceiver/interface part is rated for 1Mbps data rate from 4.5V~5.5V supplies. Bus termination, common-mode range, node count and logic-side voltage must match the target network; a protocol-family label by itself is not enough to establish substitution compatibility.
Selection Notes
- Package: PDIP-8-300mil
- Supply voltage: 4.5V~5.5V
- Data Rate: 1Mbps
- Operating Temperature: -40℃~+125℃
- Type: CAN Transceiver
Application Fit
This exact part is appropriate for designs that require a interface transceiver with the confirmed package and electrical/function parameters above. Final fit depends on the surrounding circuit, interface, thermal and mechanical requirements of the target design.
Design Considerations
Confirm the available supply rail stays inside the stated operating range, including startup and transient conditions.
Verify interface voltage levels, bus topology and timing/data-rate requirements against the rest of the system.
Use the exact PDIP-8-300mil footprint/package definition when checking PCB land pattern, assembly clearance and sourcing equivalence.
