AS8530
LIN Transceiver with Integrated Voltage Regulator and
MCU Interface for Automotive Applications
1 General Description
The AS8530 is a general purpose companion IC for sensor and
actuator LIN slaves offering LIN transceiver and low drop voltage
regulator.
It also provides a 2-wire microcontroller interface through shared EN
and TX pins to access a window watchdog with RC oscillator, control
registers, backup registers and monitoring information.
The IC is fabricated in a high voltage CMOS technology which is
able to withstand voltages up to 42V.
The product is available in ep-SOIC8 package.
Typically 45µA quiescent current in standby mode,
Typically 35µA quiescent current in sleep mode
Under voltage reset with factory options
LIN bus transceiver l conforming to LIN 2.1, TX time out fail
safe feature, over temperature warning and shut down
Window watchdog if factory enabled
Micro controller 2-wire interface through shared pins for
watchdog trigger, monitoring, register read /write
Chip ID for traceability and module ID
8 Backup registers to store data during VCC shut down
2 Key Features
