Detailed description
Stand-Alone CAN Controller with SPI Interface MCP2515-I/ST
The MCP2515-I/ST from Microchip Technology is a stand-alone second-generation CAN (Controller Area Network) controller that acts as a communication bridge between a host microcontroller and the CAN bus. It is compliant with the CAN 2.0B specification, enabling support for both standard and extended data frames. The main advantage of this device is its built-in SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface), which relieves the microcontroller (MCU) from the complex handling of the CAN protocol, allowing for fast and easy integration with virtually any 8-bit MCU. The device is supplied in a TSSOP-20 surface-mount package.
Key Features and Parameters of the MCP2515-I/ST Controller
-
Type: Stand-alone CAN controller (does not include a physical layer transceiver).
-
Protocols: Compliant with CAN 2.0B (supports standard and extended frames).
-
Maximum Data Rate: 1 Mbps (Megabit per second).
-
Host Interface: SPI (up to 10 MHz).
-
Message Filtering: Two masks and six acceptance filters reduce host processor load by rejecting unwanted messages.
-
Buffers: Two receive (Rx) buffers with prioritized message storage and three transmit (Tx) buffers with priority and abort options.
-
Supply Voltage: Wide range from 2.7 V to 5.5 V.
-
Package: TSSOP-20 (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package).
-
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C.
Typical Applications of the MCP2515-I/ST Controller
The MCP2515 is extremely popular in applications that require robust and deterministic network communication, and it is used in:
-
automotive systems,
-
industrial automation,
-
embedded and IoT systems,
-
measurement and diagnostic devices.
If you need an easy and reliable way to implement a CAN bus in your microcontroller project, the MCP2515-I/ST is the optimal solution.
