Universal System Basis Chip HERMES

The devices TLE8263E of the SBC family are monolithic integrated circuits in an enhanced power package with identical software functionality and hardware features except for the number of LIN cells. The devices are designed for CAN-LIN automotive applications e.g. body controller, gateway applications. To support these applications, the System Basis Chip (SBC) provides the main functions, such as HS-CAN transceiver and LIN transceivers for data transmission, low dropout voltage Regulators (LDO) for an external 5 V supply, and a 16-bit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) to control and monitor the device. Also implemented are a Time-out or a Window Watchdog circuit with a reset feature, Limp Home circuitry output, and an undervoltage reset feature. By Infineon Technologies Corporation
