The NCV7321 is a full-featured Local Internet (LIN) transceiver for interfacing between LIN protocol controllers and physical buses. The transceiver is implemented in I3T technology, which enables the coexistence of high-voltage analog circuits and digital functions on the same chip. The NCV7321 LIN device is part of the In-Vehicle Networking (IVN) transceiver family. The LIN bus is suitable for sending low-speed data from control devices such as door locks, mirrors, car seats and sunroofs at the lowest possible cost. The bus is adapted to eliminate as much wiring as possible, implementing it with one wire in each node. Each node has a slave MCU state machine that recognizes and translates instructions specific to that function. The main advantage of the LIN bus is that all these characteristics are not time-critical functions, usually related to passenger comfort.
