The transceiver meets all requirements of the relevant standards and its features include a wide input voltage range from 8 to 36V, a high driver performance of up to 200mA, integrated wakeup detection and a data transmission speed of up to 230kbit/s. The driver allows configuration as low-side, high-side or push-pull. Short-circuit, over-current and over-temperature protection functions ensure a high operating safety and also simplify application design.
Thanks to an internal 5V voltage regulator and a 3.3V/5V compatible digital interface, the E981.10 can be used with a variety of existing microcontrollers e.g. NEC Electronics Europe's 78K0 MCU, which in this case takes over protocol implementation. The component is useable with a chip temperature up to +150°C and is provided in a small 4x4 mm QFN 4x4 package, thus making it ideally suitable for use in compact sensors and actuators. Datasheets and samples are available from stock. Demo boards are available upon request.
