The TJR1443 looked sufficiently similar to the TCAN1043 to use the
same driver configuration (which is limited to having standby and/or
enable signals or not). However, I'm not sure it behaves exactly
the same, e.g. in case of reporting an error condition (which is not
yet supported by the driver). The part numbers are also different,
so this is not a simple case of SN74HCxx vs. CD74HCxx.
Summary: I don't know if they are identical, or if TJR1443 is a
compatible superset of TCAN1043, or vice versa. Hence I went for the
safest way....
