Design Summary

  • For devices located on the same PCB there must be a 2.2-nF isolation capacitor on each COMM± line with a voltage rating twice that of the cell stack.
  • In addition to the isolation method there must be a termination resistor at each end of the connection for devices located on the same PCB and for between PCBs.
  • There are three types of noise isolation methods that can be employed when communicating through a cable:
    1. Capacitor Only Isolation
      1. Only recommended for cables less than 2 m
    2. Capacitor and Choke Isolation
      1. Cables longer than 2 m
      2. Part number: ACT45B-510-2P-TL003 for single mode choke
    3. Transformer Isolation
      1. HMU1228 and HM2147 transformer is recommended
  • PESD2CAN is recommended between communication lines to add ESD isolation
  • Any capacitance present on the communication line can have an effect on the performance. All intentional and parasitic capacitance must be calculated and taken into effect.
