company blog about Mingjiada Electronics Supply TI TCAN1462: Automotive CAN FD Transceiver, Supporting SIC Signal Enhancement

Shenzhen Mingjiada Electronics Co., Ltd. — supplies the TI TCAN1462 series of high-speed Controller Area Network (CAN) transceivers. This series supports CAN FD data rates of up to 8 Mbps and integrates Signal Improvement Capability (SIC), which helps engineers reduce bus ringing and improve signal eye diagrams. It is designed for applications with continuously increasing data volumes, such as automotive gateways, ADAS, body control systems, and hybrid/all-electric powertrains.

I. What is the TCAN1462?

The TCAN1462 is a high-speed Controller Area Network (CAN) transceiver launched by TI. The automotive-grade model, TCAN1462-Q1, is certified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1, complies with the ISO 11898-2:2016 physical layer specification, and supports CiA 601-4 SIC (Signal Improvement Capability). The TCAN1462 is compatible with both traditional CAN and CAN FD, with a maximum signalling rate of 8 Mbps, making it suitable for transitional designs upgrading from traditional vehicle body networks to high-performance in-vehicle communication.
