Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCAN1042-Q1, TCAN1051-Q1, TCAN330G, TCAN332G
I read the TI app note SLLA279A on minimum distance between CAN nodes. The solution offered was to increase the length of the cable joining the CAN nodes from 5 inches to 18 inches. Is there an approach that doesn't involve extending the cable? If you reduce the CAN bus speed, does that help? Could you add grounds to the cable to possibly increase its capacitance per unit length? Does TI have transceivers with smaller differential capacitance than the 65HVD234?
Thanks in advance.
