® The CPCI-CAN/400-4 is a CompactPCI board in 3U format, that features four electrically isolated high-speed CAN interfaces according to ISO 11898-2. CAN is driven by the esd Advanced CAN ® ® Core (esdACC) CAN controller implemented in the Xilinx Spartan 3e FPGA.
The jumper (JP600A) has to be left in delivery status! Otherwise the software driver can not be started. See also page 15 for signal assignment of the CAN connector. CPCI-CAN/400-4 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2033.21 / Rev. 1.2 Page 7 of 27...
Connect the CAN interfaces via the DSUB25 connector in the front panel of the CPCI- CAN/400-4 (see page 7). Please note that the CAN bus has to be terminated at both ends! esd offers special T- connectors and termination connectors. Additionally the CAN_GND signal has to be connected to earth at exactly one point in the CAN network.

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.
7.2 Heavy Industrial Environment (Double Twisted Pair Cable) 7.2.1 General Rules NOTICE esd only grants the compliance with directive 2014/30/EU, if the CAN wiring is carried out with single shielded double twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2.
DSUB9 connector from ERNI (ERBIC CAN BUS MAX, order no.:154039). The usage of esd’s T-connector type C.1311.03 is not recommended for single shielded double twisted pair cables because the shield potential of the conductive DSUB housing is not looped through this T-connector type.
7.3.1 General Rules NOTICE esd only grants the compliance with directive 2014/30/EU, if the CAN wiring is carried out with single shielded double twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2. See previous chapter: 'Heavy Industrial Environment (Double Twisted Pair Cable)'.
9-pin DSUB-termination connectors with integrated termination resistor and male and ● female contacts (gender changer) 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.
5000 Table 8: 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 7.6 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. 7.6.1 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. CPCI-CAN/400-4 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2033.21 / Rev. 1.2 Page 23 of 27...
(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 27 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2033.21 / Rev. 1.2 CPCI-CAN/400-4...
