SN65HVD234DR

The SN65HVD233, SN65HVD234, and SN65HVD235 are used in applications employing the controller area network (CAN) serial communication physical layer in accordance with the ISO 11898 standard. As a CAN transceiver, each provides transmit and receive capability between the differential CAN bus and a CAN controller, with signaling rates up to 1 Mbps.

Designed for operation in especially harsh environments, the devices feature cross-wire protection, overvoltage protection up to ±36 V, loss of ground protection, overtemperature (thermal shutdown) protection, and common-mode transient protection of ±100 V. These devices operate over a wide -7 V to 12 V common-mode range. These transceivers are the interface between the host CAN controller on the microprocessor and the differential CAN bus used in industrial, building automation, transportation, and automotive applications.

Modes: The RS pin (pin 8) of the SN65HVD233, SN65HVD234, and SN65HVD235 provides three modes of operation: high-speed, slope control, and low-power standby mode. The high-speed mode of operation is selected by connecting pin 8 directly to ground, allowing the driver output transistors to switch on and off as fast as possible with no limitation on the rise and fall slope. The rise and fall slope can be adjusted by connecting a resistor between the RS pin and ground. The slope will be proportional to the pin's output current. With a resistor value of 10 kΩ the device driver will have a slew rate of ~15 V/μs and with a value of 100 kΩ the device will have ~2.0 V/μs slew rate.
