• High speed (up to 1 Mbaud)
• Transmit Data (TXD) dominant time-out function
• Bus lines protected against transients in an automotive
environment
• Silent mode in which the transmitter is disabled
• Differential receiver with wide common-mode range for
high ElectroMagnetic Immunity (EMI)
• Input levels compatible with 3.3 V devices
• Thermally protected
• Short-circuit proof to battery and ground
• An unpowered node does not disturb the bus lines
• At least 110 nodes can be connected.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TJA1050 is the interface between the 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 successor to the PCA82C250 high
speed CAN transceiver. The most important
improvements are:
• Much lower ElectroMagnetic Emission (EME) due to
optimal matching of the CANH and CANL output signals
• Improved behaviour in case of an unpowered node.

Preliminary specification
TJA1050
Control line S (pin 8) allows two operating modes to be
selected; high speed mode or silent mode.
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 unconnected.
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.
A ‘TXD Dominant Time-out’ timer circuit prevents the bus
lines being driven to a permanent dominant state (blocking
all network communication) if TXD is forced permanently
LOW by a hardware and/or software application failure.
The timer is triggered by a negative edge on TXD. If the
duration of the LOW-level on 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
TXD.

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
40 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 battery 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 TXD goes HIGH. The thermal protection
circuit is particularly needed when a bus line short-circuits.
The CANH and CANL lines are protected from automotive
electrical transients (according to “ISO 7637”; see Fig.6)
and are also protected from Electro-Static-Discharge
(ESD) of up to 4 kV from the human body.

Notes
1. The waveforms of the applied transients shall be in accordance with “ISO7637part1”, test pulses 1, 2, 3a and 3b,

(see Fig.6).
In accordance with “IEC747-1”. An alternative definition of Tj is: Tj = Tamb + P · Rth(j-a), where Rth(j-a) is a fixed value
to be used for the calculation of Tj. The rating for Tj limits the allowable combinations of power dissipation (P) and
ambient temperature (Tamb).
3. Human body model; C = 100 pF R = 1.5 kW.
