TCAN4550-Q1: CAN FD function

Part Number: TCAN4550-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCAN4550

Hi,

I want to get the CAN FD function using TCAN4550-Q1 with the MCU which doesn't have CAN FD function. Is that possible?

Thanks.

  • Hi Kevin,

    Yes, TCAN4550 has a fully integrated CAN FD controller and transceiver. This allows any MCU that supports SPI to interface with a CAN bus with CAN FD data frames. All of the CAN protocol is handled by the TCAN4550 so no CAN controller is required on the MCU itself. 

    Let me know if you have any more questions. 

    Regards,
