1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW
A typical CAN solution consists of a CAN controller that
implements the CAN protocol, and a CAN transceiver
that serves as the interface to the physical CAN bus.
The MCP25625 integrates both the CAN controller and
the CAN transceiver. Therefore, it is a complete CAN
solution that can be easily added to a microcontroller
with an SPI interface.

MCP25625
1.3 Typical Application
Figure 1-2 shows an example of a typical application
of the MCP25625. In this example, the microcontroller
operates at 3.3V.
VDDA supplies the CAN transceiver and must be
connected to 5V.
VDD, VIO of the MCP25625 are connected to the VDD
of the microcontroller. The digital supply can range
from 2.7V to 5.5V. Therefore, the I/O of the MCP25625
is connected directly to the microcontroller, no level
shifters are required.
The TXD and RXD pins of the CAN transceiver must be
externally connected to the TxCAN and RxCAN pins of
the CAN controller.
The SPI interface is used to configure and control the
CAN controller.
The INT pin of the MCP25625 signals an interrupt to
the microcontroller. Interrupts need to be cleared by
the microcontroller through SPI.
The usage of RxnBF and TxnRTS is optional, since
the functions of these pins can be accessed through
SPI. The RESET pin can optionally be pulled up to the
VDD of the MCP25625 using a 10 k resistor.
The CLKOUT pin provides the clock to the
microcontroller.

MCP25625
2.0 MODES OF OPERATION
2.1 CAN Controller Modes of
Operation
The CAN controller has five modes of operation:
Configuration mode
Normal mode
•Sleep mode
Listen-Only mode
Loopback mode
The operational mode is selected via the
REQOP[2:0] bits in the CANCTRL register (see
Register 4-34).
When changing modes, the mode will not actually
change until all pending message transmissions are
complete. The requested mode must be verified by
reading the OPMOD[2:0] bits in the CANSTAT register
(see Register 4-35).
2.2 CAN Transceiver Modes of
Operation
The CAN transceiver has two modes of operation:
Normal mode
Standby mode
Normal mode is selected by applying a low level to the
STBY pin. The driver block is operational and can drive
the bus pins. The slopes of the output signals on CANH
and CANL are optimized to produce minimal Electro-
magnetic Emissions (EME). The high-speed differential
receiver is active.
Standby mode is selected by applying a high level to
the STBY pin. In Standby mode, the transmitter and the
high-speed part of the receiver are switched off to min-
imize power consumption. The low-power receiver and
the wake-up filter are enabled in order to monitor the
bus for activity. The receive pin (RXD) will show a
delayed representation of the CAN bus, due to the
wake-up filter.
2.3 Configuration Mode
The MCP25625 must be initialized before activation. This
is only possible if the device is in Configuration mode.
Configuration mode is automatically selected after power-
up, a Reset or can be entered from any other mode by
setting the REQOPx bits in the CANCTRL register. When
Configuration mode is entered, all error counters are
cleared. Configuration mode is the only mode where the
following registers are modifiable:
CNF1, CNF2, CNF3
TXRTSCTRL
Acceptance Filter registers
2.4 Normal Mode
Normal mode is the standard operating mode of the
MCP25625. In this mode, the device actively monitors
all bus messages and generates Acknowledge bits,
error frames, etc. This is also the only mode in which
the MCP25625 transmits messages over the CAN bus.
Both the CAN controller and the CAN transceiver must
be in Normal mode.
2.5 Sleep/Standby Mode
The CAN controller has an internal Sleep mode that is
used to minimize the current consumption of the
device. The SPI interface remains active for reading
even when the MCP25625 is in Sleep mode, allowing
access to all registers.
Sleep mode is selected via the REQOPx bits in the
CANCTRL register. The OPMODx bits in the CANSTAT
register indicate the operation mode. These bits should
be read after sending the SLEEP command to the
MCP25625. The MCP25625 is active and has not yet
entered Sleep mode until these bits indicate that Sleep
mode has been entered.
When in Sleep mode, the MCP25625 stops its internal
oscillator. The MCP25625 will wake-up when bus
activity occurs or when the microcontroller sets via the
SPI interface. The WAKIF bit in the CANINTF register
will “generate” a wake-up attempt (the WAKIE bit in the
CANINTE register must also be set in order for the
wake-up interrupt to occur).
The CAN transceiver must be in Standby mode in order
to take advantage of the low standby current of the
transceiver. After a wake-up, the microcontroller must
put the transceiver back into Normal mode using the
STBY pin.
MCP25625
DS20005282C-page 8 2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc.
2.5.1 WAKE-UP FUNCTIONS
The CAN transceiver will monitor the CAN bus for activity.
The wake-up filter inside the transceiver is enabled to
avoid a wake-up due to noise. In case there is activity on
the CAN bus, the RXD pin will go low. The CAN bus wake-
up function requires both CAN transceiver supply volt-
ages to be in a valid range: VDDA and VIO.
The CAN controller will detect a falling edge on the
RxCAN pin and interrupt the microcontroller if the
wake-up interrupt is enabled.
Since the internal oscillator is shut down while in Sleep
mode, it will take some amount of time for the oscillator
to start-up and the device to enable itself to receive
messages. This Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) is
defined as 128 TOSC.
The device will ignore the message that caused the
wake-up from Sleep mode, as well as any messages
that occur while the device is “waking up”. The device
will wake-up in Listen-Only mode.
The microcontroller must set both the CAN controller
and CAN transceiver to Normal mode before the
MCP25625 will be able to communicate on the bus.
2.6 Listen-Only Mode
Listen-Only mode provides a means for the MCP25625
to receive all messages (including messages with
errors) by configuring the RXM[1:0] bits in the
RXBxCTRL register. This mode can be used for bus
monitor applications or for detecting the baud rate in
“hot plugging” situations.
For Auto-Baud Detection (ABD), it is necessary that at
least two other nodes are communicating with each
other. The baud rate can be detected empirically by
testing different values until valid messages are
received.
Listen-Only mode is a silent mode, meaning no
messages will be transmitted while in this mode
(including error flags or Acknowledge signals). In
Listen-Only mode, both valid and invalid messages will
be received regardless of filters and masks or
RXM[1:0] bits in the RXBxCTRL registers. The error
counters are reset and deactivated in this state. The
Listen-Only mode is activated by setting the REQOPx
bits in the CANCTRL register.
2.7 Loopback Mode
Loopback mode will allow internal transmission of
messages from the transmit buffers to the receive
buffers without actually transmitting messages on the
CAN bus. This mode can be used in system
development and testing.
In this mode, the ACK bit is ignored and the device will
allow incoming messages from itself, just as if they
were coming from another node. The Loopback mode
is a silent mode, meaning no messages will be trans-
mitted while in this state (including error flags or
Acknowledge signals). The TxCAN pin will be in a
Recessive state.
The filters and masks can be used to allow only
particular messages to be loaded into the receive
registers. The masks can be set to all zeros to provide
a mode that accepts all messages. The Loopback
mode is activated by setting the REQOPx bits in the
CANCTRL register.

MCP25625
3.0 CAN CONTROLLER
The CAN controller implements the CAN protocol
Version 2.0B. It is compatible with the ISO 11898-1
standard.
Figure 3-1 illustrates the block diagram of the CAN
controller. The CAN controller consists of the following
major blocks:
CAN protocol engine
TX handler
RX handler
SPI interface
Control logic with registers and interrupt logic
I/O pins
Crystal oscillator
3.1 CAN Module
The CAN protocol engine, together with the TX and RX
handlers, provide all the functions required to receive and
transmit messages on the CAN bus. Messages are trans-
mitted by first loading the appropriate message buffers
and control registers. Transmission is initiated by using
control register bits via the SPI interface or by using the
transmit enable pins. Status and errors can be checked by
reading the appropriate registers. Any message detected
on the CAN bus is checked for errors and then matched
against the user-defined filters to see if it should be moved
into one of the two receive buffers.
3.2 Control Logic
The control logic block controls the setup and operation
of the MCP25625 and contains the registers.
Interrupt pins are provided to allow greater system
flexibility. There is one multipurpose interrupt pin (as
well as specific interrupt pins) for each of the receive
registers that can be used to indicate a valid message
has been received and loaded into one of the receive
buffers. Use of the specific interrupt pins is optional.
The general purpose interrupt pin, as well as Status
registers (accessed via the SPI interface), can also be
used to determine when a valid message has been
received.
Additionally, there are three pins available to initiate
immediate transmission of a message that has been
loaded into one of the three transmit registers. Use of
these pins is optional, as initiating message transmis-
sions can also be accomplished by utilizing control
registers accessed via the SPI interface.
3.3 SPI Protocol Block
The microcontroller interfaces to the device via the SPI
interface. Registers can be accessed using the SPI
READ and WRITE commands. Specialized SPI
commands reduce the SPI overhead.

3.5 CAN Protocol Engine
The CAN protocol engine combines several functional
blocks, shown in Figure 3-3 and described below.
3.5.1 PROTOCOL FINITE STATE MACHINE
The heart of the engine is the Finite State Machine
(FSM). The FSM is a sequencer that controls the
sequential data stream between the TX/RX Shift
register, the CRC register and the bus line. The FSM
also controls the Error Management Logic (EML) and
the parallel data stream between the TX/RX Shift
registers and the buffers. The FSM ensures that the
processes of reception, arbitration, transmission and
error signaling are performed according to the CAN
protocol. The automatic retransmission of messages
on the bus line is also handled by the FSM.
3.5.2 CYCLIC REDUNDANCY CHECK
The Cyclic Redundancy Check register generates the
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) code, which is
transmitted after either the control field (for messages
with 0 data bytes) or the data field and is used to check
the CRC field of incoming messages.
3.5.3 ERROR MANAGEMENT LOGIC
The Error Management Logic (EML) is responsible for
the Fault confinement of the CAN device. Its two count-
ers, the Receive Error Counter (REC) and the Transmit
Error Counter (TEC), are incremented and decremented
by commands from the bit stream processor. Based on
the values of the error counters, the CAN controller is set
into the states: error-active, error-passive or bus-off.
3.5.4 BIT TIMING LOGIC
The Bit Timing Logic (BTL) monitors the bus line input
and handles the bus-related bit timing according to the
CAN protocol. The BTL synchronizes on a Recessive-
to-Dominant bus transition at Start-of-Frame (hard
synchronization) and on any further Recessive-to-
Dominant bus line transition if the CAN controller itself
does not transmit a Dominant bit (resynchronization).
The BTL also provides programmable time segments
to compensate for the propagation delay time, phase
shifts and to define the position of the sample point
within the bit time. The programming of the BTL
depends on the baud rate and external physical delay
times.

3.6 Message Transmission
The transmit registers are described in Section 4.1
“Message Transmit Registers”.
3.6.1 TRANSMIT BUFFERS
The MCP25625 implements three transmit buffers.
Each of these buffers occupies 14 bytes of SRAM and
is mapped into the device memory map.
The first byte, TXBxCTRL, is a control register
associated with the message buffer. The information in
this register determines the conditions under which the
message will be transmitted and indicates the status of
the message transmission (see Register 4-1).
Five bytes are used to hold the Standard and Extended
Identifiers, as well as other message arbitration
information (see Registers 4-3 through 4-7). The last
eight bytes are for the eight possible data bytes of the
message to be transmitted (see Register 4-8).
At a minimum, the TXBxSIDH, TXBxSIDL and
TXBxDLC registers must be loaded. If data bytes are
present in the message, the TXBxDn registers must also
be loaded. If the message is to use Extended Identifiers,
the TXBxEIDn registers must also be loaded and the
EXIDE bit in the TXBxSIDL register should be set.
Prior to sending the message, the microcontroller must
initialize the TXxIE bit in the CANINTE register to
enable or disable the generation of an interrupt when
the message is sent.
3.6.2 TRANSMIT PRIORITY
Transmit priority is a prioritization within the CAN
controller of the pending transmittable messages. This
is independent from, and not necessarily related to, any
prioritization implicit in the message arbitration scheme
built into the CAN protocol.
Prior to sending the Start-of-Frame (SOF), the priority
of all buffers that are queued for transmission are com-
pared. The transmit buffer with the highest priority will
be sent first. For example, if Transmit Buffer 0 has a
higher priority setting than Transmit Buffer 1, Buffer 0
will be sent first.
If two buffers have the same priority setting, the buffer
with the highest buffer number will be sent first. For
example, if Transmit Buffer 1 has the same priority
setting as Transmit Buffer 0, Buffer 1 will be sent first.
The TXP[1:0] bits in the TXBxCTRL register (see
Register 4-1) allow the selection of four levels of transmit
priority for each transmit buffer individually. A buffer with
the TXPx bits equal to ‘11’ has the highest possible
priority, while a buffer with the TXPx bits equal to ‘00’ has
the lowest possible priority.
3.6.3 INITIATING TRANSMISSION
In order to initiate message transmission, the TXREQ
bit in the TXBxCTRL register must be set for each
buffer to be transmitted. This can be accomplished by:
Writing to the register via the SPI WRITE
command
Sending the SPI RTS command
Setting the TxnRTS pin low for the particular
transmit buffer(s) that is to be transmitted
If transmission is initiated via the SPI interface, the
TXREQ bit can be set at the same time as the TXPx
priority bits.
When the TXREQ is set, the ABTF, MLOA and TXERR
bits in the TXBxCTRL register will be cleared
automatically.
Once the transmission has completed successfully, the
TXREQ bit will be cleared, the TXxIF bit in the
CANINTF register will be set and an interrupt will be
generated if the TXxIE bit in the CANINTE register is
set.
If the message transmission fails, the TXREQ bit will
remain set. This indicates that the message is still
pending for transmission and one of the following
condition flags will be set:
If the message started to transmit but
encountered an error condition, the TXERR bit in
the TXBxCTRL register and the MERRF bit in the
CANINTF register will be set, and an interrupt will
be generated on the INT pin if the MERRE bit in
the CANINTE register is set.
If arbitration is lost, the MLOA bit in the
TXBxCTRL register will be set.
Note: The TXREQ bit in the TXBxCTRL register
must be clear (indicating the transmit buf-
fer is not pending transmission) before
writing to the transmit buffer.
Note: Setting the TXREQ bit in the TXBxCTRL
register does not initiate a message
transmission. It merely flags a message
buffer as being ready for transmission.
Transmission will start when the device
detects that the bus is available.
Note: If One-Shot mode is enabled (OSM bit in
the CANCTRL register), the above condi-
tions will still exist. However, the TXREQ bit
will be cleared and the message will not
attempt transmission a second time.
2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc. DS20005282C-page 13
MCP25625
3.6.4 ONE-SHOT MODE
One-Shot mode ensures that a message will only
attempt to transmit one time. Normally, if a CAN
message loses arbitration or is destroyed by an error
frame, the message is retransmitted. With One-Shot
mode enabled, a message will only attempt to transmit
one time, regardless of arbitration loss or error frame.
One-Shot mode is required to maintain time slots in
deterministic systems, such as TTCAN.
3.6.5 TxnRTS PINS
The TxnRTS pins are input pins that can be configured
as:
Request-to-Send inputs, which provide an
alternative means of initiating the transmission of
a message from any of the transmit buffers
Standard digital inputs
Configuration and control of these pins is accomplished
using the TXRTSCTRL register (see Register 4-2). The
TXRTSCTRL register can only be modified when
the CAN controller is in Configuration mode (see
Section 2.0 “Modes of Operation”). If configured to
operate as a Request-to-Send pin, the pin is mapped
into the respective TXREQ bit in the TXBxCTRL regis-
ter for the transmit buffer. The TXREQ bit is latched by
the falling edge of the TxnRTS pin. The TxnRTS pins
are designed to allow them to be tied directly to the
RxnBF pins to automatically initiate a message
transmission when the RxnBF pin goes low.
The TxnRTS pins have internal pull-up resistors of
100 k (nominal).
3.6.6 ABORTING TRANSMISSION
The MCU can request to abort a message in a specific
message buffer by clearing the associated TXREQ bit.
In addition, all pending messages can be requested to
be aborted by setting the ABAT bit in the CANCTRL
register. This bit MUST be reset (typically, after the
TXREQ bits have been verified to be cleared) to con-
tinue transmitting messages. The ABTF flag in the
TXBxCTRL register will only be set if the abort was
requested via the ABAT bit in the CANCTRL register.
Aborting a message by resetting the TXREQ bit does
NOT cause the ABTF bit to be set.
Note 1: Messages that were transmitting when
the abort was requested will continue to
transmit. If the message does not suc-
cessfully complete transmission (i.e., lost
arbitration or was interrupted by an error
frame), it will then be aborted.
2: When One-Shot mode is enabled, if the
message is interrupted due to an error
frame or loss of arbitration, the ABTF bit
in the TXBxCTRL register will be set.

3.7 Message Reception
The registers required for message reception
are described in Section 4.2 “Message Receive
Registers”.
3.7.1 RECEIVE MESSAGE BUFFERING
The MCP25625 includes two full receive buffers with
multiple acceptance filters for each. There is also a
separate Message Assembly Buffer (MAB) that acts as
a third receive buffer (see Figure 3-6).
3.7.1.1 Message Assembly Buffer
Of the three receive buffers, the MAB is always
committed to receiving the next message from the bus.
The MAB assembles all messages received. These
messages will be transferred to the RXBx buffers (see
Registers 4-12 to 4-17) only if the acceptance filter
criteria is met.
3.7.1.2 RXB0 and RXB1
The remaining two receive buffers, called RXB0 and
RXB1, can receive a complete message from the
protocol engine via the MAB. The MCU can access one
buffer, while the other buffer is available for message
reception, or for holding a previously received
message.
3.7.1.3 Receive Flags/interrupts
When a message is moved into either of the receive
buffers, the appropriate RXxIF bit in the CANINTF reg-
ister is set. This bit must be cleared by the MCU in
order to allow a new message to be received into the
buffer. This bit provides a positive lockout to ensure
that the MCU has finished with the message before the
CAN controller attempts to load a new message into
the receive buffer.
If the RXxIE bit in the CANINTE register is set, an inter-
rupt will be generated on the INT pin to indicate that a
valid message has been received. In addition, the
associated RxnBF pin will drive low if configured as a
receive buffer full pin. See Section 3.7.4 “Rx0BF and
Rx1BF Pins” for details.
3.7.2 RECEIVE PRIORITY
RXB0, the higher priority buffer, has one mask and two
message acceptance filters associated with it. The
received message is applied to the mask and filters for
RXB0 first.
RXB1 is the lower priority buffer, with one mask and
four acceptance filters associated with it.
In addition to the message being applied to the RB0
mask and filters first, the lower number of acceptance
filters makes the match on RXB0 more restrictive and
implies a higher priority for that buffer.
When a message is received, the RXBxCTRL[3:0] bits
will indicate the acceptance filter number that enabled
reception and whether the received message is a
remote transfer request.
3.7.2.1 Rollover
Additionally, the RXB0CTRL register can be configured
such that, if RXB0 contains a valid message and
another valid message is received, an overflow error
will not occur and the new message will be moved into
RXB1, regardless of the acceptance criteria of RXB1.
3.7.2.2 RXM[1:0] Bits
The RXM[1:0] bits in the RXBxCTRL register set
special Receive modes. Normally, these bits are
cleared to ‘00’ to enable reception of all valid messages
as determined by the appropriate acceptance filters. In
this case, the determination of whether or not to receive
standard or extended messages is determined by the
EXIDE bit in the RFXxSIDL register.
If the RXMx bits are set to ‘11’, the buffer will receive all
messages, regardless of the values of the acceptance
filters. Also, if a message has an error before the End-
of-Frame (EOF), that portion of the message
assembled in the MAB before the error frame will be
loaded into the buffer. This mode has some value in
debugging a CAN system and would not be used in an
actual system environment.
Setting the RXMx bits to ‘01’ or ‘10’ is not
recommended.
Note: The entire content of the MAB is moved
into the receive buffer once a message is
accepted. This means that regardless of
the type of identifier (Standard or
Extended) and the number of data bytes
received, the entire receive buffer is
overwritten with the MAB contents.
Therefore, the contents of all registers in
the buffer must be assumed to have been
modified when any message is received.
MCP25625
DS20005282C-page 16 2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.7.3 START-OF-FRAME SIGNAL
If enabled, the Start-of-Frame signal is generated on
the SOF bit at the beginning of each CAN message
detected on the RxCAN pin.
The RxCAN pin monitors an Idle bus for a Recessive-
to-Dominant edge. If the Dominant condition remains
until the sample point, the MCP25625 interprets this as
a SOF and a SOF pulse is generated. If the Dominant
condition does not remain until the sample point, the
MCP25625 interprets this as a glitch on the bus and no
SOF signal is generated. Figure 3-5 illustrates SOF
signaling and glitch filtering.
As with One-Shot mode, one use for SOF signaling is
for TTCAN-type systems. In addition, by monitoring
both the RxCAN pin and the SOF bit, an MCU can
detect early physical bus problems by detecting small
glitches before they affect the CAN communication.
3.7.4 Rx0BF AND Rx1BF PINS
In addition to the INT pin, which provides an interrupt
signal to the MCU for many different conditions, the
Receive Buffer Full pins (Rx0BF and Rx1BF) can be
used to indicate that a valid message has been loaded
into RXB0 or RXB1, respectively. The pins have three
different configurations (see Tab le 3 -1 ):
1. Disabled
2. Buffer Full Interrupt
3. Digital Output
3.7.4.1 Disabled
The RxnBF pins can be disabled to the high-
impedance state by clearing the BxBFE bit in the
BFPCTRL register.
3.7.4.2 Configured as Buffer Full
The RxnBF pins can be configured to act as either
buffer full interrupt pins or as standard digital outputs.
Configuration and status of these pins is available via
the BFPCTRL register (Register 4-11). When set to
operate in Interrupt mode (by setting the BxBFE and
BxBFM bits in the BFPCTRL register), these pins are
active-low and are mapped to the RXxIF bit in the
CANINTF register for each receive buffer. When this bit
goes high for one of the receive buffers (indicating that
a valid message has been loaded into the buffer), the
corresponding RxnBF pin will go low. When the RXxIF
bit is cleared by the MCU, the corresponding interrupt
pin will go to the logic-high state until the next message
is loaded into the receive buffer.

MCP25625
3.7.4.3 Configured as Digital Output
When used as digital outputs, the BxBFM bits in the
BFPCTRL register must be cleared and the BxBFE bits
must be set for the associated buffer. In this mode, the
state of the pin is controlled by the BxBFS bits in the
same register. Writing a ‘1’ to the BxBFS bits will cause
a high level to be driven on the associated buffer full
pin, while a ‘0’ will cause the pin to drive low. When
using the pins in this mode, the state of the pin should
be modified only by using the SPI BIT MODIFY
command to prevent glitches from occurring on either
of the buffer full pins.

Note: Messages received in the MAB are initially applied to the mask and filters of RXB0. In addition,

be for RXF0 and the message will be moved into RXB0).

MCP25625
3.7.5 MESSAGE ACCEPTANCE FILTERS
AND MASKS
The message acceptance filters and masks are used to
determine if a message in the Message Assembly
Buffer should be loaded into either of the receive
buffers (see Figure 3-9). Once a valid message has
been received into the MAB, the identifier fields of the
message are compared to the filter values. If there is a
match, that message will be loaded into the appropriate
receive buffer.
The registers required for message filtering are described
in Section 4.3 “Acceptance Filter Registers”.
3.7.5.1 Data Byte Filtering
When receiving standard data frames (11-bit identifier),
the MCP25625 automatically applies 16 bits of masks
and filters, normally associated with Extended
Identifiers, to the first 16 bits of the data field (data
bytes 0 and 1). Figure 3-8 illustrates how masks and
filters apply to extended and standard data frames.
Data byte filtering reduces the load on the MCU when
implementing Higher Layer Protocols (HLPs) that filter
on the first data byte (e.g., DeviceNet™).
3.7.5.2 Filter Matching
The filter masks (see Registers 4-22 through 4-25)
are used to determine which bits in the identifier are
examined with the filters. A truth table is shown in
Table 3-2 that indicates how each bit in the identifier is
compared to the masks and filters to determine if the
message should be loaded into a receive buffer. The
mask essentially determines which bits to apply the
acceptance filters to. If any mask bit is set to a zero,
that bit will automatically be accepted, regardless of
the filter bit.
As shown in the Receive Buffer Block Diagram
(Figure 3-6), acceptance filters, RXF0 and RXF1 (and
filter mask, RXM0), are associated with RXB0. Filters,
RXF2, RXF3, RXF4, RXF5 and RXM1 mask, are
associated with RXB1.

DS20005282C-page 20 2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.7.5.3 FILHIT Bits
Filter matches on received messages can be deter-
mined by the FILHIT[2:0] bits in the associated
RXBxCTRL register. The FILHIT0 bit in the RXB0CTRL
register is associated with Buffer 0 and the FILHIT[2:0]
bits in the RXB1CTRL register are associated with
Buffer 1.
The three FILHITx bits for Receive Buffer 1 (RXB1) are
coded as follows:
101 = Acceptance Filter 5 (RXF5)
100 = Acceptance Filter 4 (RXF4)
011 = Acceptance Filter 3 (RXF3)
010 = Acceptance Filter 2 (RXF2)
001 = Acceptance Filter 1 (RXF1)
000 = Acceptance Filter 0 (RXF0)
RXB0CTRL contains two copies of the BUKT bit
(BUKT1) and the FILHIT[0] bit.
The coding of the BUKT bit enables these three bits to
be used similarly to the FILHITx bits in the RXB1CTRL
register and to distinguish a hit on filters, RXF0 and
RXF1, in either RXB0 or after a rollover into RXB1.
111 = Acceptance Filter 1 (RXB1)
110 = Acceptance Filter 0 (RXB0)
001 = Acceptance Filter 1 (RXB1)
000 = Acceptance Filter 0 (RXB0)
If the BUKT bit is clear, there are six codes
corresponding to the six filters. If the BUKT bit is set,
there are six codes corresponding to the six filters, plus
two additional codes corresponding to the RXF0 and
RXF1 filters that roll over into RXB1.
3.7.5.4 Multiple Filter Matches
If more than one acceptance filter matches, the
FILHITx bits will encode the binary value of the lowest
numbered filter that matched. For example, if filters,
RXF2 and RXF4, match, FILHITx will be loaded with
the value for RXF2. This essentially prioritizes the
acceptance filters with a lower numbered filter having
higher priority. Messages are compared to filters in
ascending order of filter number. This also ensures that
the message will only be received into one buffer. This
implies that RXB0 has a higher priority than RXB1.
3.7.5.5 Configuring the Masks and Filters
The Mask and Filter registers can only be modified
when the MCP25625 is in Configuration mode (see
Section 2.0 “Modes of Operation”).
FIGURE 3-9: MESSAGE ACCEPTANCE MASK AND FILTER OPERATION
Note: 000’ and ‘001’ can only occur if the BUKT
bit in RXB0CTRL is set, allowing RXB0
messages to roll over into RXB1.
Note: The Mask and Filter registers read all ‘0’s
when in any mode except Configuration
mode.

3.8 CAN Bit Time
The Nominal Bit Rate (NBR) is the number of bits per
second transmitted on the CAN bus (see Equation 3-1).
EQUATION 3-1: NOMINAL BIT RATE/TIME
The Nominal Bit Time (NBT) is made up of four
non-overlapping segments. Each of these segments is
made up of an integer number of so called Time
Quanta (TQ).
The length of each Time Quantum is based on the
oscillator period (TOSC). Equation 3-2 illustrates how
the Time Quantum can be programmed using the Baud
Rate Prescaler (BRP):
EQUATION 3-2: TIME QUANTA
Figure 3-10 illustrates how the Nominal Bit Time is
made up of four segments:
Synchronization Segment (SYNC)
Synchronizes the different nodes connected on
the CAN bus. A bit edge is expected to be within
this segment. Based on the CAN protocol, the
Synchronization Segment is 1 TQ. See
Section 3.8.3 “Synchronization” for more
details on synchronization.
Propagation Segment (PRSEG) – Compensates
for the propagation delay on the bus. It is
programmable from 1 to 8 TQ.
Phase Segment 1 (PHSEG1) – This time
segment compensates for errors that may occur
due to phase shifts in the edges. The time
segment may be automatically lengthened during
resynchronization to compensate for the phase
shift. It is programmable from 1 to 8 TQ.
Phase Segment 2 (PHSEG2) – This time
segment compensates for errors that may occur
due to phase shifts in the edges. The time
segment may be automatically shortened during
resynchronization to compensate for the phase
shift. It is programmable from 2 to 8 TQ.
The total number of Time Quanta in a Nominal Bit Time
is programmable and can be calculated using
Equation 3-3.

3.8.1 SAMPLE POINT
The sample point is the point in the Nominal Bit Time at
which the logic level is read and interpreted. The CAN
bus can be sampled once or three times, as configured
by the SAM bit in the CNF2 register:
SAM = 0: The sample point is located between
PHSEG1 and PHSEG2.
SAM = 1: One sample point is located between
PHSEG1 and PHSEG2. Additionally, two samples
are taken at one-half TQ intervals prior to the end
of PHSEG1, with the value of the bit being
determined by a majority decision.
The sample point in percent can be calculated using
Equation 3-4.
EQUATION 3-4: SAMPLE POINT
3.8.2 INFORMATION PROCESSING TIME
The Information Processing Time (IPT) is the time
required for the CAN controller to determine the bit
level of a sampled bit. The IPT for the MCP25625 is
2T
Q. Therefore, the minimum of PHSEG2 is also 2 TQ.
3.8.3 SYNCHRONIZATION
To compensate for phase shifts between the oscillator
frequencies of the nodes on the bus, each CAN controller
must be able to synchronize to the relevant edge of the
incoming signal.
The CAN controller expects an edge in the received
signal to occur within the SYNC segment. Only
Recessive-to-Dominant edges are used for
synchronization.
There are two mechanisms used for synchronization:
Hard Synchronization – Forces the edge that
has occurred to lie within the SYNC segment. The
bit time counter is restarted with SYNC.
Resynchronization – If the edge falls outside the
SYNC segment, PHSEG1 and PHSEG2 will be
adjusted.
For a more detailed description of the CAN synchroni-
zation, please refer to AN754, “Understanding
Microchip’s CAN Module Bit Timing” (DS00754) and
ISO11898-1.
3.8.4 SYNCHRONIZATION JUMP WIDTH
The Synchronization Jump Width (SJW) is the maxi-
mum amount PHSEG1 and PHSEG2 can be adjusted
during resynchronization. SJW is programmable from
1to 4 T
Q.
3.8.5 OSCILLATOR TOLERANCE
According to the CAN specification, the bit timing
requirements allow ceramic resonators to be used in
applications with transmission rates of up to 125 kbps,
as a rule of thumb. For the full bus speed range of the
CAN protocol, a quartz oscillator is required. A
maximum node-to-node oscillator variation of 1.58% is
allowed.
The oscillator tolerance (df), around the nominal
frequency of the oscillator (fnom), is defined in
Equation 3-5.
Equation 3-6 and Equation 3-7 describe the conditions
for the maximum tolerance of the oscillator.

MCP25625
3.8.6 PROPAGATION DELAY
Figure 3-11 illustrates the propagation delay between
two CAN nodes on the bus. Assuming Node A is
transmitting a CAN message, the transmitted bit will
propagate from the transmitting CAN Node A,
through the transmitting CAN transceiver, over the
CAN bus, through the receiving CAN transceiver into
the receiving CAN Node B.
During the arbitration phase of a CAN message, the
transmitter samples the bus and checks if the transmit-
ted bit matches the received bit. The transmitting node
has to place the sample point after the maximum
propagation delay.
Equation 3-8 describes the maximum propagation
delay; where tTXD – RXD is the propagation delay of the
transceiver, 235 ns for the MCP25625; TBUS is the
delay on the CAN bus, approximately 5 ns/m. The
factor two comes from the worst case, when Node B
starts transmitting exactly when the bit from Node A
arrives.

3.8.7 BIT TIME CONFIGURATION
EXAMPLE
The following example illustrates the configuration of
the CAN Bit Time registers. Assuming we want to set
up a CAN network in an automobile with the following
parameters:
500 kbps Nominal Bit Rate (NBR)
Sample point between 60 and 80% of the Nominal
Bit Time (NBT)
40 meters minimum bus length
Table 3-3 illustrates how the bit time parameters are
calculated. Since the parameters depend on multiple
constraints and equations, and are calculated using an
iterative process, it is recommended to enter the
equations into a spread sheet.
A detailed description of the Bit Time Configuration
registers can be found in Section 4.4 “Bit Time

3.9 Error Detection
The CAN protocol provides sophisticated error
detection mechanisms. The following errors can be
detected.
The registers required for error detection are described
in Section 4.5 “Error Detection Registers”.
3.9.1 CRC ERROR
With the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), the
transmitter calculates special check bits for the bit
sequence from the Start-of-Frame until the end of the
data field. This CRC sequence is transmitted in the
CRC field. The receiving node also calculates the CRC
sequence using the same formula and performs a com-
parison to the received sequence. If a mismatch is
detected, a CRC error has occurred and an error frame
is generated; the message is repeated.
3.9.2 ACKNOWLEDGE ERROR
In the Acknowledge field of a message, the transmitter
checks if the Acknowledge slot (which has been sent
out as a Recessive bit) contains a Dominant bit. If not,
no other node has received the frame correctly. An
Acknowledge error has occurred, an error frame is
generated and the message will have to be repeated.
3.9.3 FORM ERROR
If a node detects a Dominant bit in one of the four
segments (including End-of-Frame, inter-frame space,
Acknowledge delimiter or CRC delimiter), a form error
has occurred and an error frame is generated. The
message is repeated.
3.9.4 BIT ERROR
A bit error occurs if a transmitter detects the opposite
bit level to what it transmitted (i.e., transmitted a
Dominant and detected a Recessive, or transmitted a
Recessive and detected a Dominant).
Exception: In the case where the transmitter sends a
Recessive bit, and a Dominant bit is detected during
the arbitration field and the Acknowledge slot, no bit
error is generated because normal arbitration is
occurring.
3.9.5 STUFF ERROR
lf, between the Start-of-Frame and the CRC delimiter,
six consecutive bits with the same polarity are
detected, the bit-stuffing rule has been violated. A stuff
error occurs and an error frame is generated; the
message is repeated.
3.9.6 ERROR STATES
Detected errors are made known to all other nodes via
error frames. The transmission of the erroneous mes-
sage is aborted and the frame is repeated as soon as
possible. Furthermore, each CAN node is in one of the
three error states according to the value of the internal
error counters:
Error-active
Error-passive
Bus-off (transmitter only)
The error-active state is the usual state where the node
can transmit messages and active error frames (made
of Dominant bits) without any restrictions.
In the error-passive state, messages and passive error
frames (made of Recessive bits) may be transmitted.
The bus-off state makes it temporarily impossible for
the station to participate in the bus communication.
During this state, messages can neither be received
nor transmitted. Only transmitters can go bus-off.
3.10 Error Modes and Error Counters
The MCP25625 contains two error counters: the
Receive Error Counter (REC) (see Register 4-30) and
the Transmit Error Counter (TEC) (see Register 4-29).
The values of both counters can be read by the MCU.
These counters are incremented/decremented in
accordance with the CAN bus specification.
The MCP25625 is error-active if both error counters are
below the error-passive limit of 128.
The device is error-passive if at least one of the error
counters equals or exceeds 128.
The device goes to bus-off if the TEC exceeds the bus-
off limit of 255. The device remains in this state until the
bus-off recovery sequence is received. The bus-off
recovery sequence consists of 128 occurrences of
11 consecutive Recessive bits (see Figure 3-12).
The current Error mode of the MCP25625 can be read
by the MCU via the EFLG register (see Register 4-31).
Additionally, there is an error state warning flag bit
(EWARN bit in the EFLG register), which is set if at
least one of the error counters equals or exceeds the
error warning limit of 96. EWARN is reset if both error
counters are less than the error warning limit.
Note: The MCP25625, after going bus-off, will
recover back to error-active without any
intervention by the MCU if the bus
remains Idle for 128 x 11 bit times. If this is
not desired, the error Interrupt Service
Routine (ISR) should address this.

3.11 Interrupts
The MCP25625 has eight sources of interrupts. The
CANINTE register contains the individual interrupt
enable bits for each interrupt source. The CANINTF
register contains the corresponding interrupt flag bit for
each interrupt source. When an interrupt occurs, the
INT pin is driven low by the MCP25625 and will remain
low until the interrupt is cleared by the MCU. An
interrupt can not be cleared if the respective condition
still prevails.
It is recommended that the BIT MODIFY command be
used to reset the flag bits in the CANINTF register,
rather than normal write operations. This is done to
prevent unintentionally changing a flag that changes
during the WRITE command, potentially causing an
interrupt to be missed.
It should be noted that the CANINTF flags are
read/write and an interrupt can be generated by the
microcontroller setting any of these bits, provided the
associated CANINTE bit is also set.
The Interrupt registers are described in Section 4.6
“Interrupt Registers.
3.11.1 INTERRUPT CODE BITS
The source of a pending interrupt is indicated in the
ICOD[2:0] (Interrupt Code) bits in the CANSTAT register,
as indicated in Register 4-35. In the event that multiple
interrupts occur, the INT pin will remain low until all inter-
rupts have been reset by the MCU. The ICOD bits will
reflect the code for the highest priority interrupt that is
currently pending. Interrupts are internally prioritized,
such that the lower the ICODx value, the higher the
interrupt priority. Once the highest priority interrupt
condition has been cleared, the code for the next highest
priority interrupt that is pending (if any) will be reflected
by the ICODx bits (see Table 3-4). Only those interrupt
sources that have their associated CANINTE enable bit
set will be reflected in the ICODx bits.

3.11.2 TRANSMIT INTERRUPT
When the transmit interrupt is enabled (TXxIE = 1 in the
CANINTE register), an interrupt will be generated on the
INT pin once the associated transmit buffer becomes
empty and is ready to be loaded with a new message.
The TXxIF bit in the CANINTF register will be set to indi-
cate the source of the interrupt. The interrupt is cleared
by clearing the TXxIF bit.
3.11.3 RECEIVE INTERRUPT
When the receive interrupt is enabled (RXxIE = 1 in the
CANINTE register), an interrupt will be generated on
the INT pin once a message has been successfully
received and loaded into the associated receive buffer.
This interrupt is activated immediately after receiving
the EOF field. The RXxIF bit in the CANINTF register
will be set to indicate the source of the interrupt. The
interrupt is cleared by clearing the RXxIF bit.
3.12 Message Error Interrupt
When an error occurs during the transmission or
reception of a message, the message error flag
(MERRF bit in the CANINTF register) will be set, and if
the MERRE bit in the CANINTE register is set, an
interrupt will be generated on the INT pin. This is
intended to be used to facilitate baud rate determination
when used in conjunction with Listen-Only mode.
3.12.1 BUS ACTIVITY WAKE-UP
INTERRUPT
When the CAN controller is in Sleep mode and the bus
activity wake-up interrupt is enabled (WAKIE = 1 in the
CANINTE register), an interrupt will be generated on the
INT pin and the WAKIF bit in the CANINTF register will be
set when activity is detected on the CAN bus. This
interrupt causes the CAN controller to exit Sleep mode.
The interrupt is reset by clearing the WAKIF bit.
3.12.2 ERROR INTERRUPT
When the error interrupt is enabled (ERRIE = 1 in the
CANINTE register), an interrupt is generated on the
INT pin if an overflow condition occurs, or if the error
state of the transmitter or receiver has changed. The
Error Flag (EFLG) register will indicate one of the
following conditions.
3.12.2.1 Receiver Overflow
An overflow condition occurs when the MAB has
assembled a valid receive message (the message meets
the criteria of the acceptance filters) and the receive buf-
fer associated with the filter is not available for loading a
new message. The associated RXxOVR bit in the EFLG
register will be set to indicate the overflow condition. This
bit must be cleared by the microcontroller.
3.12.2.2 Receiver Warning
The REC has reached the MCU warning limit of 96.
3.12.2.3 Transmitter Warning
The TEC has reached the MCU warning limit of 96.
3.12.2.4 Receiver Error-Passive
The REC has exceeded the error-passive limit of 127
and the device has gone to error-passive state.
3.12.2.5 Transmitter Error-Passive
The TEC has exceeded the error-passive limit of 127
and the device has gone to error-passive state.
3.12.2.6 Bus-Off
The TEC has exceeded 255 and the device has gone
to bus-off state.
3.12.3 INTERRUPT ACKNOWLEDGE
Interrupts are directly associated with one or more
status flags in the CANINTF register. Interrupts are
pending as long as one of the flags is set. Once an
interrupt flag is set by the device, the flag can not be
reset by the MCU until the interrupt condition is
removed.
3.13 Oscillator
The MCP25625 is designed to be operated with a crystal
or ceramic resonator connected to the OSC1 and OSC2
pins. The MCP25625 oscillator design requires the use
of a parallel cut crystal. Use of a series cut crystal may
give a frequency out of the crystal manufacturer’s
specifications. A typical oscillator circuit is shown in
Figure 3-13. The MCP25625 may also be driven by an
external clock source connected to the OSC1 pin, as
shown in Figure 3-14 and Figure 3-15.
3.13.1 OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER
The MCP25625 utilizes an Oscillator Start-up Timer
(OST) that holds the MCP25625 in Reset to ensure that
the oscillator has stabilized before the internal state
machine begins to operate. The OST keeps the device
in a Reset state for 128 OSC1 clock cycles after the
occurrence of a Power-on Reset, SPI Reset, after the
assertion of the RESET pin, and after a wake-up from
Sleep mode. Note that no SPI protocol operations are
to be attempted until after the OST has expired.
Note: The CAN controller wakes up into
Listen-Only mode.

3.13.2 CLKOUT PIN
The CLKOUT pin is provided to the system designer for
use as the main system clock or as a clock input for other
devices in the system. The CLKOUT has an internal
prescaler, which can divide FOSC by 1, 2, 4 and 8. The
CLKOUT function is enabled and the prescaler is
selected via the CANCTRL register (see Register 4-34).
The CLKOUT pin will be active upon system Reset and
default to the slowest speed (divide-by-8) so that it can
be used as the MCU clock.
When Sleep mode is requested, the CAN controller will
drive sixteen additional clock cycles on the CLKOUT
pin before entering Sleep mode. The Idle state of the
CLKOUT pin in Sleep mode is low. When the CLKOUT
function is disabled (CLKEN = 0 in the CANCTRL
register), the CLKOUT pin is in a high-impedance state.
The CLKOUT function is designed to ensure that
tHCLKOUT and tLCLKOUT timings are preserved when the
CLKOUT pin function is enabled, disabled or the
prescaler value is changed.

3.14 Reset
The MCP25625 differentiates between two Resets:
1. Hardware Reset – Low on RESET pin
2. SPI Reset Reset via SPI command (see
Section 5.1 “RESET Instruction”)
Both of these Resets are functionally equivalent. It is
important to provide one of these two Resets after
power-up to ensure that the logic and registers are in
their default state. A hardware Reset can be achieved
automatically by placing an RC on the RESET pin (see
Figure 3-16). The values must be such that the device
is held in Reset for a minimum of 2 µs after VDD
reaches the operating voltage, as indicated in the
electrical specification (tRL).

MCP25625
5.0 SPI INTERFACE
The MCP25625 is designed to interface directly with
the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) port available on
many microcontrollers and supports Mode 0,0 and
Mode 1,1.
Commands and data are sent to the device via the SI
pin, with data being clocked in on the rising edge of
SCK. Data is driven out by the MCP25625 (on the SO
line) on the falling edge of SCK. The CS pin must be
held low while any operation is performed.
Table 5-1 shows the instruction bytes for all operations.
Refer to Figures 5-10 and 5-11 for detailed input and
output timing diagrams for both Mode 0,0 and Mode 1,1
operation.
Note 1: The MCP25625 expects the first byte,
after lowering CS, to be the instruction/
command byte. This implies that CS must
be raised and then lowered again to
invoke another command.

5.1 RESET Instruction
The RESET instruction can be used to re-initialize the
internal registers of the MCP25625 and set Configuration
mode. This command provides the same functionality,
via the SPI interface, as the RESET pin.
The RESET instruction is a single byte instruction that
requires selecting the device by pulling CS low,
sending the instruction byte and then raising CS. It is
highly recommended that the RESET command be sent
(or the RESET pin be lowered) as part of the power-on
initialization sequence.
5.2 READ Instruction
The READ instruction is started by lowering the CS pin.
The READ instruction is then sent to the MCP25625,
followed by the 8-bit address (A7 through A0). Next, the
data stored in the register at the selected address will
be shifted out on the SO pin.
The internal Address Pointer is automatically incremented
to the next address once each byte of data is shifted out.
Therefore, it is possible to read the next consecutive
register address by continuing to provide clock pulses.
Any number of consecutive register locations can be read
sequentially using this method. The READ operation is
terminated by raising the CS pin (Figure 5-2).
5.3 READ RX BUFFER Instruction
The READ RX BUFFER instruction (Figure 5-3) pro-
vides a means to quickly address a receive buffer for
reading. This instruction reduces the SPI overhead by
one byte: the address byte. The command byte actually
has four possible values that determine the Address
Pointer location. Once the command byte is sent, the
controller clocks out the data at the address location
the same as the READ instruction (i.e., sequential reads
are possible). This instruction further reduces the SPI
overhead by automatically clearing the associated
receive flag (RXxIF bit in the CANINTF register) when
CS is raised at the end of the command.
5.4 WRITE Instruction
The WRITE instruction is started by lowering the CS
pin. The WRITE instruction is then sent to the
MCP25625, followed by the address and at least one
byte of data.
It is possible to write to sequential registers by
continuing to clock in data bytes, as long as CS is held
low. Data will actually be written to the register on the
rising edge of the SCK line for the D0 bit. If the CS line
is brought high before eight bits are loaded, the write
will be aborted for that data byte and previous bytes in
the command will have been written. Refer to the timing
diagram in Figure 5-4 for a more detailed illustration of
the byte WRITE sequence.
5.5 LOAD TX BUFFER Instruction
The LOAD TX BUFFER instruction (Figure 5-5) elimi-
nates the 8-bit address required by a normal WRITE
command. The 8-bit instruction sets the Address
Pointer to one of six addresses to quickly write to a
transmit buffer that points to the “ID” or “data” address
of any of the three transmit buffers.
5.6 Request-to-Send (RTS) Instruction
The RTS command can be used to initiate message
transmission for one or more of the transmit buffers.
The MCP25625 is selected by lowering the CS pin. The
RTS command byte is then sent. Shown in Figure 5-6,
the last three bits of this command indicate which
transmit buffer(s) are enabled to send.
This command will set the TXREQ bit in the TXBxCTRL
register for the respective buffer(s). Any or all of the last
three bits can be set in a single command. If the RTS
command is sent with nnn = 000, the command will be
ignored.
5.7 READ STATUS Instruction
The READ STATUS instruction allows single instruction
access to some of the often used Status bits for
message reception and transmission.
The MCP25625 is selected by lowering the CS pin and
the READ STATUS command byte, shown in Figure 5-8,
is sent to the MCP25625. Once the command byte is
sent, the MCP25625 will return eight bits of data that
contain the status.
If additional clocks are sent after the first eight bits are
transmitted, the MCP25625 will continue to output the
Status bits as long as the CS pin is held low and clocks
are provided on SCK.
Each Status bit returned in this command may also be
read by using the standard READ command with the
appropriate register address.
5.8 RX STATUS Instruction
The RX STATUS instruction (Figure 5-9) is used to
quickly determine which filter matched the message
and message type (standard, extended, remote). After
the command byte is sent, the controller will return
eight bits of data that contain the status data. If more
clocks are sent after the eight bits are transmitted, the
controller will continue to output the same Status bits as
long as the CS pin stays low and clocks are provided.
2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc. DS20005282C-page 57
MCP25625
5.9 BIT MODIFY Instruction
The BIT MODIFY instruction provides a means for
setting or clearing individual bits in specific status and
control registers. This command is not available for all
registers. See Section 4.0 “Register Map” to
determine which registers allow the use of this command.
The part is selected by lowering the CS pin and the BIT
MODIFY command byte is then sent to the MCP25625.
The command is followed by the address of the
register, the mask byte, and finally, the data byte.
The mask byte determines which bits in the register will
be allowed to change. A ‘1’ in the mask byte will allow
a bit in the register to change, while a ‘0’ will not (see
Figure 5-1).
The data byte determines what value the modified bits
in the register will be changed to. A 1’ in the data byte
will set the bit and a ‘0’ will clear the bit, provided that
the mask for that bit is set to a ‘1’ (see Figure 5-7).
FIGURE 5-1: BIT MODIFY
FIGURE 5-2: READ INSTRUCTION
FIGURE 5-3: READ RX BUFFER INSTRUCTION
Note: Executing the BIT MODIFY command on
registers that are not bit-modifiable will
force the mask to FFh. This will allow byte
writes to the registers, not BIT MODIFY.

6.0 CAN TRANSCEIVER
The CAN transceiver is a differential, high-speed, Fault
tolerant interface to the CAN physical bus. It is fully
compatible with the ISO-11898-2 and ISO-11898-5
standards. It operates at speeds of up to 1 Mb/s.
The CAN transceiver converts the digital TxCAN signal
generated by the CAN controller to signals suitable for
transmission over the physical CAN bus (differential out-
put). It also translates the differential CAN bus voltage to
the RxCAN input signal of the CAN controller.
The CAN transceiver meets the stringent automotive
EMC and ESD requirements.
Figure 6-1 illustrates the block diagram of the CAN
transceiver.

6.1 Transmitter Function
The CAN bus has two states: Dominant and Recessive.
A Dominant state occurs when the differential voltage
between CANH and CANL is greater than VDIFF(D)(I). A
Recessive state occurs when the differential voltage is
less than VDIFF(R)(I). The Dominant and Recessive
states correspond to the low and high state of the TXD
input pin, respectively. However, a Dominant state
initiated by another CAN node will override a Recessive
state on the CAN bus.
6.2 Receiver Function
In Normal mode, the RXD output pin reflects the differ-
ential bus voltage between CANH and CANL. The low
and high states of the RXD output pin correspond to the
Dominant and Recessive states of the CAN bus,
respectively.
6.3 Internal Protection
CANH and CANL are protected against battery short
circuits and electrical transients that can occur on the
CAN bus. This feature prevents destruction of the
transmitter output stage during such a Fault condition.
The device is further protected from excessive current
loading by thermal shutdown circuitry that disables the
output drivers when the junction temperature exceeds
a nominal limit of +175°C. All other parts of the chip
remain operational and the chip temperature is lowered
due to the decreased power dissipation in the
transmitter outputs. This protection is essential to
protect against bus line short-circuit induced damage.
6.4 Permanent Dominant Detection
The CAN transceiver device prevents two conditions:
Permanent Dominant condition on TXD
Permanent Dominant condition on the bus
In Normal mode, if the CAN transceiver detects an
extended low state on the TXD input, it will disable the
CANH and CANL output drivers in order to prevent the
corruption of data on the CAN bus. The drivers will
remain disabled until TXD goes high.
In Standby mode, if the CAN transceiver detects an
extended Dominant condition on the bus, it will set the
RXD pin to the Recessive state. This allows the
attached controller to go to Low-Power mode until the
Dominant issue is corrected. RXD is latched high until a
Recessive state is detected on the bus and the
wake-up function is enabled again.
Both conditions have a time-out of 1.25 ms (typical).
This implies a maximum bit time of 69.44 µs
(14.4 kHz), allowing up to 18 consecutive Dominant
bits on the bus.
6.5 Power-on Reset (POR) and
Undervoltage Detection
The MCP25625 has undervoltage detection on both
supply pins: VDDA and VIO. Typical undervoltage
thresholds are 1.2V for VIO and 4V for VDDA.
When the device is powered on, CANH and CANL
remain in a high-impedance state until both VDDA and
VIO exceed their undervoltage levels. In addition,
CANH and CANL will remain in a high-impedance state
if TXD is low when both undervoltage thresholds are
reached. CANH and CANL will become active only
after TXD is asserted high. Once powered on, CANH
and CANL will enter a high-impedance state if the volt-
age level at VDDA drops below the undervoltage level,
providing voltage brown-out protection during normal
operation.
In Normal mode, the receiver output is forced to a
Recessive state during an undervoltage condition on
VDDA. In Standby mode, the low-power receiver is only
enabled when both VDDA and VIO supply voltages rise
above their respective undervoltage thresholds. Once
these threshold voltages are reached, the low-power
receiver is no longer controlled by the POR comparator
and remains operational down to about 2.5V on the
VDDA supply. The CAN transceiver transfers data to the
RXD pin down to 1V on the VIO supply.
6.6 Pin Description
6.6.1 TRANSMITTER DATA
INPUT PIN (TXD)
The CAN transceiver drives the differential output pins,
CANH and CANL, according to TXD. The transceiver is
connected to the TxCAN pin of the CAN controller.
When TXD is low, CANH and CANL are in the Dominant
state. When TXD is high, CANH and CANL are in the
Recessive state, provided that another CAN node is
not driving the CAN bus with a Dominant state. TXD is
connected to an internal pull-up resistor (nominal
33 k) to VIO.
6.6.2 GROUND SUPPLY PIN (VSS)
Ground supply pin.
6.6.3 SUPPLY VOLTAGE PIN (VDDA)
Positive supply voltage pin. Supplies transmitter and
receiver, including the wake-up receiver.
2014-2019 Microchip Technology Inc. DS20005282C-page 65
MCP25625
6.6.4 RECEIVER DATA
OUTPUT PIN (RXD)
RXD is a CMOS compatible output that drives high or
low depending on the differential signals on the CANH
and CANL pins, and is usually connected to the
receiver data input of the CAN controller device. RXD is
high when the CAN bus is Recessive and low in the
Dominant state. RXD is supplied by VIO.
6.6.5 VIO PIN
Supply for digital I/O pins of the CAN transceiver.
6.6.6 CAN LOW PIN (CANL)
The CANL output drives the low side of the CAN
differential bus. This pin is also tied internally to the
receive input comparator. CANL disconnects from the
bus when VDDA is not powered.
6.6.7 CAN HIGH PIN (CANH)
The CANH output drives the high side of the CAN
differential bus. This pin is also tied internally to the
receive input comparator. CANH disconnects from the
bus when VDDA is not powered.
6.6.8 STANDBY MODE INPUT PIN (STBY)
This pin selects between Normal or Standby mode of
the CAN transceiver. In Standby mode, the transmitter
and the high-speed receiver are turned off, only the
low-power receiver and wake-up filter are active. STBY
is connected to an internal MOS pull-up resistor to VIO.
The value of the MOS pull-up resistor depends on the
supply voltage. Typical values are 660 k for 5V,
1.1 M for 3.3V and 4.4 M for 1.8V
6.6.9 EXPOSED THERMAL PAD (EP)
It is recommended to connect this pad to VSS to
enhance electromagnetic immunity and thermal
resistance.

7.4 Thermal Specifications
7.5 Terms and Definitions
A number of terms are defined in ISO-11898 that are
used to describe the electrical characteristics of a CAN
transceiver device. These terms and definitions are
summarized in this section.
7.5.1 BUS VOLTAGE
VCANL and VCANH denote the voltages of the bus line
wires, CANL and CANH, relative to the ground of each
individual CAN node.
7.5.2 COMMON-MODE BUS VOLTAGE
RANGE
Boundary voltage levels of VCANL and VCANH, with
respect to ground for which proper operation will occur,
if up to the maximum number of CAN nodes are
connected to the bus.
7.5.3 DIFFERENTIAL INTERNAL
CAPACITANCE, CDIFF
(OF A CAN NODE)
Capacitance seen between CANL and CANH during
the Recessive state, when the CAN node is
disconnected from the bus (see Figure 7-10).
7.5.4 DIFFERENTIAL INTERNAL

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Microchip received ISO/TS-16949:2009 certification for its worldwide
headquarters, design and wafer fabrication facilities in Chandler and
Tempe, Arizona; Gresham, Oregon and design centers in California
and India. The Company’s quality system processes and procedures
are for its PIC® MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs, KEELOQ® code hopping
devices, Serial EEPROMs, microperipherals, nonvolatile memory and
analog products. In addition, Microchip’s quality system for the design
and manufacture of development systems is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
