8.3.13.5 CAN Bus Short Circuit Current Limiting

These devices have several protections features that limit the short circuit current when a CAN bus line is shorted. These include CAN driver current limiting (dominant and recessive). The device has TXD dominant time out which prevents permanently having the higher short circuit current of dominant state for a system fault. During CAN communication the bus switches between dominant and recessive states; thus, the short circuit current may be viewed either as the current during each bus state or as a DC average current. For system current and power considerations in the termination resistors and common mode choke ratings, use the average short circuit current. The percentage dominant is limited by the TXD dominant time out and CAN protocol which has forced state changes and recessive bits such as bit stuffing, control fields, and inter frame space. This makes sure there is a minimum recessive amount of time on the bus even if the data field contains a high percentage of dominant bits.

Note:

The short circuit current of the bus depends on the ratio of recessive to dominant bits and their respective short circuit currents. Calculate the average short circuit current using Equation 6.

Equation 6. I O S A V G = % T r a n s m i t × % R E C _ B i t s × I O S S S _ R E C + % D O M _ B i t s × I O S S S _ D O M + % R e c i e v e × I O S S S _ R E C

Where

  • IOS(AVG) is the average short circuit current.
  • %Transmit is the percentage the node is transmitting CAN messages.
  • %Receive is the percentage the node is receiving CAN messages.
  • %REC_Bits is the percentage of recessive bits in the transmitted CAN messages.
  • %DOM_Bits is the percentage of dominant bits in the transmitted CAN messages.
  • IOS(SS)_REC is the recessive steady state short circuit current and IOS(SS)_DOM is the dominant steady state short circuit current.

Note: Take into consideration the short circuit current and possible fault cases of the network when sizing the power ratings of the termination resistance, other network components, and the power supply used to generate VSUP.
