General description

The PCA82C251 is the interface between a CAN protocol controller and the physical bus.

The device provides differential transmit capability to the bus and differential receive

capability to the CAN controller.

Features and benefits

 Fully compatible with the “ISO11898-24V” standard

 Slope control to reduce Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)

 Thermally protected

 Short-circuit proof to battery and ground in 24V powered systems

 Low-current Standby mode

 An unpowered node does not disturb the bus lines

 At least 110nodes can be connected

 High speed (up to 1MBd)

 High immunity against electromagnetic interference.

Applications

 High-speed applications (up to 1MBd) in trucks and busses.
