Circuitry Provides Robust ESD And Transient Protection For Automotive CAN Bus, CAN-FD And CAN Bus Transceiver Nodes
Semtech (USA) has launched the µClamp2492SQ chip, which is AEC-Q100 compliant. The 24-V transient voltage protection array is optimized to safeguard automotive CAN Bus nodes from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and overvoltage transient threats. It features an 18-pF capacitance. To sufficiently implement ESD immunity, CAN Bus nodes require ESD protection circuits with 24-V operating voltage and a low ESD clamping [...]
Guide To Developments And Implementations Of Automotive Ethernet Technology
Learn about the latest developments in automotive Ethernet technology and implementation with this thoroughly revised second edition, which includes approximately twenty-five percent new material and greater technical detail: Detailed explanations of how the 100BASE-T1 PHY and 1000 BASE-T1 PHY technologies work A step-by-step description of how the 1000BASE-T1 channel was derived A summary of [...]
Power Over Ethernet HAT For Raspberry Pi 3B+ And 802.3af PoE Network
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology for wired Ethernet local area networks (LANs) that allows the electrical current necessary for the operation of each device to be carried by the data cables rather than by power cords. Doing so minimizes the number of wires that must be strung to install the network. PoE was [...]
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) Prototyping For Embedded Systems Such As Arduino, Raspberry Pi
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) is a serial network protocol used for communication between components in vehicles. The demand for a second serial network emerged as the technologies and the facilities implemented in modern cars grew, while the CAN Bus was too expensive to implement for every component in the car. European car manufacturers started using [...]
CAN FD (CAN Bus with Flexible Data Rate) Prototyping For Embedded Systems Such As Arduino, Raspberry Pi
CAN FD was created to accommodate increases in bandwidth requirements within automotive networks. The CAN FD protocol has brought the software closer to "real time" through the minimization of delays between instruction and transfer of data (latency) and higher bandwidth. CAN FD also allows for more storage capacity in a data frame. While the classic CAN [...]
Interpreting CAN Bus, LIN Bus, RS485, RS232 Networks Per Logic Analyzer
Ikalogic (France) has launched a series of test instruments, including the SP209, a nine-channel, 200‑MHz logic analyzer which can, among other serial technologies, interpret CAN Bus protocols. The series aims to analyze CMOS logic signals and industrial networks alike. The SP209 combines specific receivers for most common industrial systems like CAN Bus, LIN Bus, EIA‑485, or EIA‑232. The [...]
