GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TJA1050 is the interface between the Controller Area
Network (CAN) protocol controller and the physical bus.
The device provides differential transmit capability to the
bus and differential receive capability to the CAN
controller.
The TJA1050 is the third Philips high-speed CAN
transceiver after the PCA82C250 and the PCA82C251.
The most important differences are:
• Much lower electromagnetic emission due to optimal
matching of the output signals CANH and CANL
• Improved behaviour in case of an unpowered node
• No standby mode.
This makes the TJA1050 eminently suitable for use in
nodes that are in a power-down situation in partially
powered networks.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TJA1050 is the interface between the CAN protocol
controller and the physical bus. It is primarily intended for
high-speed automotive applications using baud rates from
60 kbaud up to 1 Mbaud. It provides differential transmit
capability to the bus and differential receiver capability to
the CAN protocol controller. It is fully compatible to the
“ISO11898”standard.
A current-limiting circuit protects the transmitter output
stage from damage caused by accidental short-circuit to
either positive or negative supply voltage, although power
dissipation increases during this fault condition.
A thermal protection circuit protects the IC from damage
by switching off the transmitter if the junction temperature
exceeds a value of approximately 165 C. Because the
transmitter dissipates most of the power, the power
dissipation and temperature of the IC is reduced. All other
IC functions continue to operate. The transmitter off-state
resets when pin TXD goes HIGH. The thermal protection
circuit is particularly needed when a bus line short-circuits.
The pins CANH and CANL are protected from automotive
electrical transients (according to “ISO 7637”; see Fig.4).
Control pin S allows two operating modes to be selected:
high-speed mode or silent mode.
The high-speed mode is the normal operating mode and is
selected by connecting pin S to ground. It is the default
mode if pin S is not connected. However, to ensure EMI
performance in applications using only the high-speed
mode, it is recommended that pin S is connected to
ground.
In the silent mode, the transmitter is disabled. All other
IC functions continue to operate. The silent mode is
selected by connecting pin S to VCC and can be used to
prevent network communication from being blocked, due
to a CAN controller which is out of control.
A ‘TXD dominant time-out’ timer circuit prevents the bus
lines being driven to a permanent dominant state (blocking
all network communication) if pin TXD is forced
permanently LOW by a hardware and/or software
application failure. The timer is triggered by a negative
edge on pin TXD. If the duration of the LOW-level on
pin TXD exceeds the internal timer value, the transmitter is
disabled, driving the bus into a recessive state. The timer
is reset by a positive edge on pin TXD.

In accordance with “IEC60747-1”. An alternative definition of Tvj is: Tvj = Tamb + P · Rth(vj-a), where Rth(vj-a) is a fixed
value to be used for the calculation of Tvj. The rating for Tvj limits the allowable combinations of power dissipation (P)
and ambient temperature (Tamb).

Notes
1. All parameters are guaranteed over the virtual junction temperature range by design, but only 100 % tested at 125 C
ambient temperature for dies on wafer level and in addition to this 100 % tested at 25 C ambient temperature for
cased products, unless specified otherwise.
2. For bare die, all parameters are only guaranteed if the backside of the bare die is connected to ground.
