MCP2551 CAN Transceiver IC DIP 8 Package
The MCP2551 is a high-speed Controller Area Network (CAN) transceiver IC that provides the physical layer interface between a CAN protocol controller and the CAN bus. It converts logic-level transmit and receive signals into the differential CANH and CANL bus signals required for reliable communication in noisy environments.
Designed for high-speed CAN (up to 1 Mbps) operation, the MCP2551 offers robust performance with excellent electromagnetic compatibility. The DIP-8 through-hole package makes it easy to use in prototyping, development boards, and industrial applications.
