FlexRay™ Transceiver
E910.54
Features
Brief Functional Description
ÿ Part of the FlexRay™ electrical, physical layer
ÿ Interface between the communication controller
and the transfer medium (twisted pair bus line)
ÿ Support of data rates up to 10 Mbit/s
ÿ Enhanced diagnosis capability provided via SPI
with interrupt generation
ÿ Protection against overload damage by current
limitation and overtemperature detection
ÿ Bus driver outputs withstand - 27 V / + 40 V DC
voltage
ÿ Low EME due to balanced differential transmission
The low cost basic FlexRay™ transceiver is part of the
electrical, physical layer in a FlexRay™ communication
network. The E910.54 provides an interface between
the twisted pair physical bus medium and a commu-
nication controller (CC). An SPI interface connects the
bus driver (BD) to a host controller (HOST) to provide
status information concerning failure detection on the
bus lines (e.g. short-circuits, ground loss) and overtem-
perature condition. An interrupt signal is generated
whenever the failure status changes.
Applications
