Therefore the practical maximum number of nodes, bus length and stub length are typically much lower. esd has concentrated her recommendations concerning CAN wiring on the specifications of the ISO 11898-2. Thus this wiring hints forgoes to describe the special features of the derived standards CANopen, ARINC825, DeviceNet and NMEA2000.
6.2.1 General Rules NOTICE esd grants the EU Conformity of the product, if the CAN wiring is carried out with at least single shielded single twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2. Single shielded double twisted pair cable wiring as described in chapter 6.3. ensures the EU Conformity as well.
9-pin DSUB-termination connectors with integrated termination resistor and male and ● female contacts are available from esd (order no. C.1303.01). DSUB termination connectors with male contacts (order no. C.1302.01) or female contacts ● (order no. C.1301.01) and additional functional earth contact are available, if CAN termination and grounding of CAN_GND is required.
CAN bus line via short cable stubs. This is normally realised by so called T- connectors. When using esd's CAN-T-Connector (order no.: C.1311.03) it should be noted that the shield potential of the conductive DSUB housing is not looped through this T- Connector type.
5000 Table 5: Recommended cable lengths at typical bit rates (with esd-CAN interfaces) Optical couplers are delaying the CAN signals. esd modules typically reach a wire length of ● 37 m at 1 Mbit/s within a proper terminated CAN network without impedance disturbances like e.g.
Correctly Wiring Electrically Isolated CAN Networks 6.6 Examples for CAN Cables esd recommends the following two-wire and four-wire cable types for CAN network design. These cable types are used by esd for ready-made CAN cables, too. 6.6.1 Cable for light industrial Environment Applications (Two-Wire)
- there are no open circuits in CAN_H or CAN_L wiring - your bus system has two terminating resistors (one at each end) and that they are 120 Ω each. CAN-USB/2 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2066.21 / Rev. 1.6 Page 23 of 28...
(see figure at previous page). 4. Measure the DC voltage between CAN_L and CAN_GND (see figure at previous page). Normally the voltage should be between 2.0 V and 3.0 V. Page 24 of 28 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2066.21 / Rev. 1.6 CAN-USB/2...
