Key Differentiators
- System-In-Package with integrated 8-bit microcontroller (vs L9924)
- Supports multiple communication protocols (RCV, PCM, C_term, BSS) (vs L9924)
- High maximum operating temperature of 155°C (vs L9924)
Design Notes
The L9924-TR can dissipate significant power in the HTQFP-44 package. Ensure adequate PCB copper area and thermal vias to keep the junction temperature below the maximum rating. For high ambient temperatures (e.g., 105°C), consider forced airflow or a heatsink. The thermal resistance of the package is not specified in the available data; use typical values for HTQFP-44 (around 30-40°C/W) for initial calculations.
Place decoupling capacitors close to the VCC and power pins to filter noise. Use a 100nF ceramic capacitor for high-frequency bypass and a 10uF electrolytic capacitor for bulk decoupling. Ensure the ground plane is solid and connected to the exposed pad (if present) for thermal and electrical performance. Follow the layout guidelines in the ST datasheet for optimal performance.
Do not exceed the maximum operating temperature of 155°C. Ensure the communication protocol (RCV, PCM, C_term, BSS) is correctly configured to match the vehicle's control unit. Incorrect protocol selection can lead to communication failures. Also, verify the input voltage range for the B+ and B- sense lines to avoid overvoltage damage.
Compliance Information
Compliance information not specified in the available data. Refer to the STMicroelectronics datasheet or contact the manufacturer for RoHS, REACH, and AEC-Q100 status.
