10.1.1 CAN BUS Loading, Length and Number of Nodes

The ISO 11898-2:2024 standard specifies a maximum bus length of 40m and maximum stub length of 0.3m. However, with careful design, users can have longer cables, longer stub lengths, and many more nodes to a bus. A high number of nodes require a transceiver with high input impedance such as this transceiver family.

Many CAN organizations and standards have scaled the use of CAN for applications outside the original ISO 11898-2:2024 standard. These organizations made system level trade off decisions for data rate, cable length, and parasitic loading of the bus. Examples of these CAN systems level specifications are ARINC825, CANopen, DeviceNet, SAEJ2284, SAEJ1939, and NMEA200.

A CAN network system design is a series of tradeoffs. In ISO11898-2 the driver differential output is specified with a 60Ω bus load (the two termination resistors in parallel) where the differential output must be greater than 1.5V. The TCAN284x-Q1 is specified to meet the 1.5V requirement with a across this load range and is specified to meet 1.4V differential output at 45Ω bus load. The differential input resistance of this family of transceiver is a minimum of 30kΩ. If 167 of these transceivers are in parallel on a bus, this is equivalent to an 180Ω differential load in parallel with the 60Ω from termination gives a total bus load of 45Ω. Therefore, this family theoretically supports over 167 transceivers on a single bus segment with margin to the 1.2V minimum differential input voltage requirement at each receiving node. However, for CAN network design margin must be given for signal loss across the system and cabling, parasitic loadings, timing, network imbalances, ground offsets and signal integrity thus a practical maximum number of nodes is much lower. Bus length can also be extended beyond the original ISO 11898-2:2024 standard of 40m by careful system design and data rate tradeoffs. For example, CANopen network design guidelines allow the network to be up to 1km with changes in the termination resistance, cabling, less than 64 nodes and significantly lowered data rate.

This flexibility in CAN network design is one of the key strengths, allowing for the system level network extensions and additional standards to build on the original ISO11898-2 CAN standard. However, when using this flexibility, the CAN network system designer must take the responsibility of good network design for robust network operation.
