Place the protection and filtering circuitry as
close to the bus connector, J1, to prevent transients, ESD and noise from
propagating onto the board. Transient voltage suppression (TVS) device can be
added for extra protection, shown as D1. The production solution can be either a
bi-directional TVS diode or varistor with ratings matching the application
requirements. This example also shows optional bus filter 0.1μF capacitors C6
and C7.
A series common-mode choke (CMC) is placed on the
CANH and CANL lines between the device and connector J1.
Design the bus protection components in the
direction of the signal path. Do not force the transient current to divert from
the signal path to reach the protection device. Use supply and ground planes to
provide low inductance.
Use at least two vias for supply and ground
connections of bypass capacitors and protection devices to minimize trace and
via inductance.
Decoupling capacitors should be placed as close
as possible to the supply terminals of transceiver, examples are 0.1μF
capacitors C1 on VCC and C2 on VIO, and a 0.1μF
and 15μF capacitor C3 and C4 on the VSUP supply.
VIO, pin 5, is connected to the micro-controller IO supply voltage
'µC V'.
Bus termination: this layout example shows split termination. This is where
the termination is split into two 60Ω resistors, R3 and R4, with the center or
split tap of the termination connected to ground via 1-100nF capacitor C5. Split
termination provides common-mode filtering for the bus. When bus termination is
placed on the board instead of directly on the bus, additional care must be
taken to make sure the terminating node is not removed from the bus thus also
removing the termination.
INH, pin 7, can have a 100kΩ resistor (R1) to ground.
WAKE, pin 9, can recognize either a rising or a falling edge of a wake signal
and is usually connected to an external switch. It should be configured as shown
with C8 which is a 22nF capacitor to GND where R5 is 33kΩ and R6 is 3kΩ.
