MCP2561T-E/SN

The MCP2561 is a second generation CAN transceiver. Although major improvements have been made, resulting in increased EMC performance and much lower current consumption, the differences in using the MCP2561 versus the MCP2551 are minor. The MCP2561 can be used as a drop - in replacement for the MCP2551 if the differences are considered. The MCP2561 also adds a new leadless package type, 8LD 3x3 DFN, allowing for smaller form factor package requirements. This package features pin 9, Exposed Thermal Pad, and has the same pinout as the PDIP and SOIC packages. The MCP2561 is a direct replacement for the MCP2551. The printed circuit board does not need to be modified. If an external resistor was used on the RS pin, it has to be lower than 100 kΩ on the STBY pin. The MCP2561 has better EMC performance, lower current consumption and meets all automotive and industrial conformance and hardware requirements.
