Using CAN Bus Load, Termination, and Protection Configurations

The CAN EVM is populated with two 120-Ω power resistors selectable via jumpers between CANH and CANL. When using one resistor, the EVM is used as a terminated end of a bus. For electrical measurements to represent the total loading of the bus, use both 120-Ω resistors in parallel to give the standard 60-Ω load for parametric measurement. The EVM also has footprints for split termination if needed for the application. Table 2-2 summarizes how to use these termination options. If using split termination, match the resistors. Calculate the common mode filter frequency using: fC = 1 / (2πRC). Normally, the split capacitance is in the range of 4.7 nF to 100 nF. Note the that a common-mode filter frequency, not a differential filter impacts the differential CAN signal directly.

The EVM also has footprints for various protection schemes to enhance robustness for extreme system-level EMC/ESD requirements. Table 2-3 summarizes these options.
