The ISO 11898 standard specifies a maximum bus length of 40 m and maximum stub length of 0.3 m with a
maximum of 30 nodes. However, with careful design, users can have longer cables, longer stub lengths, and
many more nodes on a bus. (Note: Non-standard application may come with a trade-off in signaling rate.) A bus
with a large number of nodes requires a transceiver with high input impedance such as the HVD251.
The Standard specifies the interconnect to be a single twisted-pair cable (shielded or unshielded) with 120- Ω
characteristic impedance (Zo). Resistors equal to the characteristic impedance of the line terminate both ends of
the cable to prevent signal reflections. Unterminated drop-lines connect nodes to the bus and should be kept as
short as possible to minimize signal reflections.
Connectors, while not specified by the ISO 11898 standard, should have as little effect as possible on standard
operating parameters such as capacitive loading. Although unshielded cable is used in many applications, data
transmission circuits employing CAN transceivers are usually used in applications requiring a rugged
interconnection with a wide common-mode voltage range. Therefore, shielded cable is recommended in these
electronically harsh environments, and when coupled with the –2-V to 7-V common-mode range of tolerable
ground noise specified in the standard, helps to ensure data integrity. The HVD251 extends data integrity
beyond that of the standard with an extended –7-V to 12-V range of common-mode operation.
