MCP250XX MCP250XX Rev. A2 Silicon Errata The Device# parts you have received conform functionally to the Device Data Sheet (DS21664D), except for the anomalies described below. These Errata are associated with the following Microchip devices: - MCP25020 MCP25025 MCP25050 MCP25055 All of the issues listed here will be addressed in future revisions of the MCP250XX silicon. 3. Module: Control Logic The device may exceed the maximum standby current specification (IDDS) when it is initially placed into SLEEP mode (OPTREG2.SLPEN bit is set). This condition may peak at 2 mA for a duration of 10 seconds, up to 5 seconds after the SLEEP mode command is received, with the magnitude and length of time being dependent on external conditions, including device voltage and temperature range. Work around 1. Module: CAN The CAN module may send a passive error flag earlier than expected. This will occur at the transition point of error active to error passive, TEC (Transmit Error Count), or REC (Receive Error Count) 128. Work around None Date Codes that pertain to this issue: All engineering and production devices. None Date Codes that pertain to this issue: All engineering and production devices. 4. Module: CAN TX Module If an error frame occurs on the CAN bus during message transmission by the MCP250XX, the internal flags are cleared, however, the internal byte counter does not clear. This causes the retransmitted message to become corrupted. Work around 2. Module: CAN The CAN module may not synchronize correctly if there is a phase error between nodes that is equal to the Synchronization Jump Width (SJW). As a result, the module may request retransmission of messages from the transmitting node (via an Error Frame). Work around Use the longest SJW possible that will work with the application. Date Codes that pertain to this issue: All engineering and production devices. (c) 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. The CAN node(s) interested in MCP250XX messages should discard the subsequent MCP250XX message after an error frame is detected on the bus. Date Codes that pertain to this issue: All engineering and production devices. CLARIFICATIONS/CORRECTIONS TO THE DATA SHEET: In the Device Data Sheet (DS21664D), the following clarifications and corrections should be noted. * None DS80119B-page 1 MCP250XX APPENDIX A: REVISION HISTORY APPENDIX B: Revision B Document (9/2008) 1.

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.
