The Microchip Technology MCP2551-E/P is a high-performance CAN (Controller Area Network) transceiver designed for reliable communication in automotive and industrial applications. Functioning as the interface between a CAN protocol controller and the physical bus, it provides robust, high-speed data transmission up to 1 Mbps, ensuring consistent and error-free communication across distributed systems. Moreover, the device operates across a wide voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V, maintaining consistent performance in noisy or high-load conditions typical of automotive and industrial networks.

Reliable and Robust Design

Engineered for demanding environments, the MCP2551-E/P offers exceptional electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), ESD protection, and thermal stability. The 8-PDIP package allows easy integration into through-hole PCB designs, while the half-duplex transceiver architecture supports efficient communication on shared CAN networks.

Unmatched Advantages to Users

  • High-speed CAN communication up to 1 Mbps for fast, reliable data transfer.
  • Wide common-mode range for improved noise immunity and signal integrity.
  • Thermal and short-circuit protection safeguards against bus faults.
  • Compatible with the ISO 11898 standard for seamless system integration.
  • Low electromagnetic emission (EMI) and strong ESD resilience.
  • 8-PDIP through-hole package for simple prototyping and assembly.
  • Low standby current minimises power consumption during idle states.

Typical Uses of the Microchip 1/1 Transceiver Half CANbus 8-PDIP

  • Automotive systems, including ECUs, body control modules, and diagnostic interfaces.
  • Industrial automation networks and distributed control systems.
  • Robotics and embedded communication.
  • Sensor networks, motor control, and building management systems.
  • Instrumentation and embedded development boards.

Why Buy It?

The Microchip MCP2551-E/P delivers exceptional communication reliability, efficiency, and stability, making it a trusted choice for modern CAN-based systems. Its proven design and compliance with international standards ensure interoperability across a wide range of controllers and network architectures.
