00 — Overview

What the TJA1043 does

The TJA1043 is a high-speed CAN transceiver designed for automotive networks, available in TJA1043T and TJA1043TK variants. It supports data rates up to 5 Mbit/s in the CAN FD fast phase and operates with supply voltages from 4.5 V to 5.5 V. The device handles electrostatic discharge up to 8 kV and functions across a junction temperature range of -40 to +150 °C. It features low-power management with standby currents as low as 0.75 µA and includes comprehensive protection against bus short circuits and thermal overload. Engineers use this component to interface microcontrollers directly to the physical CAN bus while ensuring reliable communication even when system supplies switch off.
