Nomenclature explanation (standby - silent - sleep - dual standby - self supplied)

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCAN1046A-Q1, TCAN1057A-Q1, TCAN1044A-Q1, TCAN1043A-Q1, TCAN1048AV-Q1, TCAN1162-Q1, TCAN1146-Q1, TCAN1145-Q1

Hi,

Can you please explain here shortly the meaning of:

standby - silent - sleep - dual standby - self supplied, partial networking

For your CAN trx so to scale these definitions in one place for all our customers?

Thanks,

Antonio

  • "Silent" means that the transceiver can disable the transmitter while still being able to receive.

    "Standby" and "sleep" are power saving modes; "standby" allows to quickly resume operation, while "sleep" saves more power.

    "Self supplied" means that it has an internal 5 V voltage regulator so that it can run from only a high-voltage supply.

    "Selective wakeup" allows for partial networking; this is explained in How Selective Wake Enables Partial Networking.

    "Dual standby" probably is the same as selective wakeup.

  • Antonio,

    Clemens is correct, however note that the term "dual" refers to two-channel devices like the TCAN1046A-Q1. Here are some examples for each of the terms you mentioned:

    Silent mode: TCAN1057A-Q1

    Standby mode: TCAN1044A-Q1

    Sleep mode: TCAN1043A-Q1

    Dual standby: TCAN1046A-Q1 / TCAN1048AV-Q1

    Self-supplied: TCAN1162-Q1

    Partial networking: TCAN1145-Q1 / TCAN1146-Q1

    Best,

    Danny
