FlexRay Active Star Coupler – 2 Branch

TJA1086G

The TJA1086G is a FlexRay™ active star coupler that connects two branches of a FlexRay network. The TJA1086G is compliant with the FlexRay electrical physical layer specification V3.0.1/ISO17458-4.

  • Several TJA1085G and TJA1086G devices can be connected via their TRXD0/1 interfaces to increase the number of branches in the network
  • A dedicated Communication Controller interface allows for integration into an ECU
  • Supports low-power management by offering bus wake-up capability along with battery supply and voltage regulator control
  • Meets industry standards for EMC/ESD performance and provides enhanced bus error detection, low current consumption and unmatched asymmetric delay performance
