APPLICATIONS
Background
The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial
communication protocol designed for providing reliable
high speed data transmission in harsh environments. surge
protection diodes provide a low cost solution to conducted
and radiated Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) noise problems. The noise
immunity level and reliability of CAN transceivers can be
easily increased by adding external surge protection diodes
to prevent transient voltage failures.
The NUP2105L provides a surge protection solution for
CAN data communication lines. The NUP2105L is a dual
bidirectional surge protection device in a compact
SOT−23 package. This device is based on Zener technology
that optimizes the active area of a PN junction to provide
robust protection against transient EMI surge voltage and
ESD. The NUP2105L has been tested to EMI and ESD
levels that exceed the specifications of popular high speed
CAN networks.
CAN Physical Layer Requirements
Table 1 provides a summary of the system requirements
for a CAN transceiver. The ISO 11898−2 physical layer
specification forms the baseline for most CAN systems. The
transceiver requirements for the Honeywell
Smart
Distribution Systems (SDS
) and Rockwell
(Allen−Bradley) DeviceNet high speed CAN networks
are similar to ISO 11898−2. The SDS and DeviceNet
transceiver requirements are similar to ISO 11898−2;
however, they include minor modifications required in an
industrial environment.
