MCP2561FDT-H/MF CANbus Transceiver Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MCP2561FDT-H/MF is a 1/1 CANbus transceiver manufactured by Microchip Technology, designed for interface applications requiring single driver and receiver functionality. This component operates across the 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage range with a maximum data rate of 8Mbps and supports operating temperatures from -40°C to 150°C. The device is housed in an 8-VDFN exposed pad package with 3x3mm dimensions and is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements necessitate alternative sourcing due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or procurement preferences while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MCP2544FDT-H/MF and MCP2562FDT-H/MF be used interchangeably with MCP2561FDT-H/MF?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical specifications including CANbus protocol, 1/1 driver/receiver configuration, 200 mV receiver hysteresis, 8Mbps data rate, 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage, and -40°C to 150°C operating temperature range. They are housed in the same 8-VDFN exposed pad package with 3x3mm dimensions and are pin-compatible.

Q: What is the difference between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and inventory availability. MCP2561FDT-H/MF uses Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while MCP2544FDT-H/MF and MCP2562FDT-H/MF use Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging. All other specifications remain identical.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these components?

A: All parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements.

Q: Can I substitute based on packaging preference?

A: Yes. If your assembly process requires Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format instead of Tape & Reel (TR), MCP2544FDT-H/MF and MCP2562FDT-H/MF are direct substitutes. The electrical and mechanical specifications remain unchanged.
