ATA6561-GAQW-N

Microchip Tech · CAN Transceivers · SOIC-8

ATA6561-GAQW-N from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 TXD input Transmit Data Input; driven low (0V to 0.3×VVIO) to send dominant bit on CAN bus, driven high (0.7×VVIO to VVIO+0.3V) to send recessive bit; internal 20-50 kΩ pull-up to VIO.
2 GND power_in Ground Supply; 0V reference for all voltages and analog circuits.
3 VCC power_in Supply Voltage; 4.5V to 5.5V nominal operating range for transceiver core and bus drivers.
4 RXD output Receive Data Output; outputs low (0.4V, 2-12 mA sink) for CAN bus dominant state, high (VVIO-0.4V, 1-8 mA source) for recessive state.
5 VIO power_in Supply Voltage for I/O Level Adapter; 2.8V to 5.5V; adjusts signal levels of TXD, RXD, and STBY pins to microcontroller I/O voltage levels; undervoltage detection threshold 1.3-2.7V.
6 CANL bidirectional Low-Level CAN Bus Line; differential pair with CANH, rated -27V to +42V DC (-150V to +100V transient per ISO 7637-2); short-circuit and ESD protected (±8 kV per IEC 61000-4-2).
7 CANH bidirectional High-Level CAN Bus Line; differential pair with CANL, rated -27V to +42V DC (-150V to +100V transient per ISO 7637-2); short-circuit and ESD protected (±8 kV per IEC 61000-4-2).
8 STBY input Standby Mode Control Input; high level (0.7×VVIO to VVIO+0.3V) selects Standby mode, low level (0V to 0.3×VVIO) selects Normal mode; internal 75-175 kΩ pull-up to VIO.
