The VDFN8 package’s ATA650x CAN FD SBCs have a small footprint of 2 mm × 3 mm, the VDFN10 package’s is 3 mm × 3 mm, and the VDFN14 package’s is 3 mm × 4.5 mm. The CAN FD SBCs can transmit and receive data at up to 5 Mbps thanks to an integrated high-speed CAN FD transceiver.
The need for wired connectivity solutions with greater bandwidth, reduced latency, and improved security is being driven by the rise in connected applications in the industrial and automotive sectors. For data to be transmitted and processed as intended, communication networking solutions that are both reliable as well as secure are essential.
The new line of ATA650x CAN FD System Basis Chips (SBCs) from Microchip Technology comes in space-saving 8-, 10-, and 14-pin packages and features a 5V Low-Drop Voltage Regulator (LDO) and a fully integrated high-speed CAN FD transceiver.

With an average sleep current of around 15 ?A, these SBCs have extremely low power consumption, making them a reliable option for applications with limited space and power.
Automotive Electronic adjust Units (ECUs) use less current when the ATA650x SBCs allow the bus signals to adjust the VCC supply voltage. By turning off LDOs while in sleep mode, the SBCs can further cut down on power usage by turning off the microcontroller supply.
The ATA650x device’s safety features include protection, failsafe, and diagnostic capabilities to provide dependable bus connectivity in sophisticated networks. With their Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) resistance and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) capabilities, the ATA650x devices are reliable options for applications that operate in challenging conditions.
Customers can attain the required ASIL level or an ISO 26262 safety certification with the aid of the integrated SBC solution, which is Functional Safety ready. Furthermore, the SBCs have a Grade 0 rating, are AEC-Q100 approved, and can function in temperatures between -40°C and +150°C.
