MCP2562 Specifications

Review MCP2562 electrical specifications, operating conditions and package details.

Package view

Key specifications

The VIO domain matches the controller logic. The 5 V domain drives and senses CANH/CANL. Protection and a standby wake-up filter surround those signal paths.

Bus supply4.5–5.5 V
I/O supply1.8–5.5 V
Maximum bit rate1 Mbit/s
Selected E grade−40–125 °C

Logic and mode behavior

LOW / HIGH relative to VIO

Scroll sideways to see all columns.

ParameterValueConditions / notes
Normal, TXD LOWDriver requests dominantSTBY LOW; RXD LOW if dominant is established
Normal, TXD HIGHDriver releases to recessiveAnother node may still force dominant
Normal, bus dominantRXD LOWReceiver reflects differential bus state
Normal, bus recessiveRXD HIGHReceiver output is referenced to VIO
StandbyDriver disabled; filtered receptionSTBY HIGH; LOW on RXD indicates wake-up activity
Unpowered / brownoutBus driver high impedanceObserve specified supply sequencing and thresholds

The mode input has an internal pull-up. Do not leave it floating when Normal mode is intended.

Voltage states are bus conditions, not separate logic supply levels.

Timing and protection

Electrical table conditions apply

Scroll sideways to see all columns.

ParameterValueConditions / notes
Bit rate14.4 kbit/s to 1 Mbit/sDominant timeout constrains very slow traffic
TXD LOW → bus dominant70 ns maximumPropagation, specified test load
TXD HIGH → bus recessive125 ns maximumPropagation, specified test load
Bus dominant → RXD LOW70 ns maximumNormal mode
Standby wake-up filter1 µs typical; 0.5–4 µsNot the Normal-mode data path
Dominant timeout1.25 ms typicalTXD must return HIGH to release transmitter lockout
Thermal shutdown175°C typical junctionProtection threshold, not a permitted operating temperature

Protection does not replace a network-specific transient, grounding or isolation design.

3.3 V controller connection

A CAN controller is required

Scroll sideways to see all columns.

ParameterValueConditions / notes
VDD3+5 V with 100 nF to GNDKeep bypass close to supply pins
VIO5+3.3 V with 100 nF to GNDSame rail as controller I/O
VSS2Common referenceJoin controller ground
TXD1 / RXD4CAN_TX / CAN_RXUse the controller’s CAN peripheral, not UART
STBY8GND in the always-on exampleUse a GPIO if standby is required
CANH7 / CANL6Twisted pair to other CAN nodesKeep topology and stubs appropriate to bit rate
Termination120 Ω at each physical cable endTwo parallel end loads are nominally 60 Ω

Another active node must share timing and acknowledge valid frames.
