DESCRIPTION

The Si9241AEY is a monolithic bus transceiver designed to

provide bidirectional serial communication in automotive

diagnostic applications.

The device incorporates protection against overvoltages and

short circuits to VBAT. The transceiver pin is protected and

can be driven beyond the VBAT voltage.

The Si9241AEY is built on the Vishay Siliconix BiC/DMOS

process. An epitaxial layer prevents latchup.

The RX output is capable of driving CMOS or 1 x LSTTL

load.

The Si9241AEY is available in a space efficient 8-pin SO

package. It operates reliably over the automotive

temperature range (- 40 to 125 °C). The Si9241AEY is

available in both standard and lead (Pb)-free packages.
