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 [...]
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 [...]

Controller Area Network - CAN Bus Message Broadcasting With Data Frames
The following is an excerpt from A Comprehensible Controller Area Network by Wilfried Voss. The broadcasting of messages in a CAN Bus network is based on a producer-consumer principle. One node, when sending a message, will be the producer while all other nodes are the consumers. All nodes in a CAN Bus network receive the same message at the [...]
