Using CAN Bus Load, Termination, and Protection Configurations

The generic 14-pin CAN EVM is populated with one 120Ω resistor selectable via jumper, between CANH and CANL, and the 120Ω split termination (two 60Ω resistors in series) including the split capacitor. When using only split termination, the EVM is used as a terminated end of a bus. For electrical measurements to represent the total loading of the bus, use both the split termination and the 120Ω resistor in parallel to give the standard 60Ω load for parametric measurement. Table 2-4 summarizes how to use these termination options.

The EVM also has footprints for various protection schemes to enhance robustness for extreme system-level EMC requirements. Table 2-5 summarizes these options.
