Product data sheet
1. General description
The UJA113x System Basis Chip (SBC) contains a fully integrated buck and boost
converter along with a number of features commonly found in the latest generation of
automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs). It interfaces directly with CAN and LIN bus
lines, supplies the microcontroller, handles input and output signals and supports fail-safe
features including a watchdog and advanced ‘limp home’ functionality configurable via
non-volatile memory. The UJA113x is available in number of variants as detailed in
Section 3.
To satisfy the demand for SBCs that operate at low battery supply voltages and feature
low power dissipation, a switched mode power supply (SMPS) with automatic down (Buck
mode) or up conversion (Boost mode) has been integrated into the UJA113x. In Boost
mode, the SMPS of the UJA1131 and UJA1132 variants can continue supplying a
microcontroller during dips in the battery voltage, ensuring uninterrupted operation. The
boost stage of the UJA1135 and the UJA1136 has limited output current capability, and is
suitable for supplying the memory in a microcontroller to prevent information being lost.
The SMPS requires only a single external coil and some capacitors but no separate
semiconductors.
The UJA113x implements the classic CAN physical layer as defined in the current
ISO11898 standard (-2:2003, -5:2007, -6:2013). Pending the release of the upcoming
version of ISO11898-2:201x including CAN FD, additional timing parameters defining loop
delay symmetry are included. This implementation enables reliable communication in the
CAN FD fast phase at data rates up to 2 Mbit/s.
The UJA113xFD/x variants support ISO 11898-6:2013 and ISO 11898-2:201x compliant
CAN partial networking with a selective wake-up function incorporating CAN FD-passive.
CAN FD-passive is a feature that allows CAN FD bus traffic to be ignored in
Sleep/Standby mode. CAN FD-passive partial networking is the perfect fit for networks
that support both CAN FD and classic CAN communications. It allows normal CAN
controllers that do not need to communicate CAN FD messages to remain in partial
networking Sleep/Standby mode during CAN FD communication without generating bus
errors.
A number of configuration settings are stored in non-volatile memory. This makes it
possible to adapt the power-on and limp home behavior of the UJA113x to meet the
specific requirements of an application.
