MCP251863T-E

Microchip · CAN ICs · SSOP-28-208mil

MCP251863T-E from Microchip, in a SSOP-28-208mil. 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 VIO power_in Transceiver digital I/O supply. Sets the logic reference level for digital pins.
2 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
3 CANL bidirectional CAN bus Low-Level voltage line. Differential transceiver I/O.
4 CANH bidirectional CAN bus High-Level voltage line. Differential transceiver I/O.
5 STBY input Transceiver Standby Mode control input. Drive high to place the transceiver in low-power standby.
6 nINT1/GPIO1 bidirectional Configurable pin: active-low Interrupt output 1, or general-purpose I/O (GPIO1). Push-pull or open-drain selectable.
7 nINT0/GPIO0/XSTBY bidirectional Configurable pin: active-low Interrupt output 0, general-purpose I/O (GPIO0), or transceiver standby control (XSTBY) driving the on-die STBY of the transceiver.
8 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
9 SCK input SPI clock input from host MCU. Up to 20 MHz.
10 SDI input SPI serial data input (MOSI).
11 SDO output SPI serial data output (MISO).
12 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
13 nCS input Active-low SPI chip-select input from host MCU.
14 VDD power_in CAN FD controller positive supply. 2.7 V to 5.5 V.
15 TXCAN output CAN FD Controller transmit output. Connect to TXD of the transceiver (internal wiring within this package pairs 15↔23).
16 RXCAN input CAN FD Controller receive input. Connect to RXD of the transceiver (internal wiring within this package pairs 16↔28).
17 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
18 CLKO/SOF output Clock output with prescaler, or Start-Of-Frame test output selectable via configuration.
19 nINT output Active-low interrupt output from the CAN FD Controller. Push-pull or open-drain configurable.
20 OSC2 output External oscillator output. Connect to one terminal of the crystal/resonator (4, 20 or 40 MHz).
21 OSC1 input External oscillator input or external clock input. Connect to the other crystal terminal or an external clock source.
22 VSS power_in Controller ground return.
23 TXD input Transceiver transmit data input. Connect to TXCAN of the controller (pin 15).
24 GND power_in Transceiver ground return.
25 VCC power_in Transceiver positive supply (typ. 5 V for standard CAN transceiver operation).
26 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
27 NC unconnected No Connect. Leave unconnected.
28 RXD output Transceiver receive data output. Connect to RXCAN of the controller (pin 16).
