[FAQ] CAN ESD Protection

Back to Interface Home Page

CAN Protection

Highlights:

  • Protocol constructed with CAN-High and CAN-Low lines
  • Requires a 2-channel diode to protect both lines and to match capacitance
  • Bi-directional Configuration is needed to protect from line faults and miswiring
  • Working Voltage ranges of 12V, 24V
  • Data rates of 1MBps, 5MBps, 20MBps for CAN, CANFD & CANXL protocols
  • CAN runs on above data rates and protocol specifies < 20pF capacitance
