lengths may be allowed at lower bit rates, but you should analyze each node for
signal integrity problems.
High-Speed/Flexible Data-Rate CAN
The maximum number of nodes depends on the electrical characteristics of the
nodes on the network. If all nodes meet the ISO 11898 requirements, you can
connect at least 30 nodes to the bus. You can connect higher numbers of nodes if
the nodes’ electrical characteristics do not degrade signal quality below ISO 11898
signal level specifications.
The TRC-8543 electrical characteristics allow at least 110 CAN ports on a network.
Low-Speed/Fault-Tolerant CAN
The maximum number of nodes depends on the electrical characteristics of the
nodes on the network. If all of the nodes meet the requirements of Low-Speed/
Fault-Tolerant CAN, up to 32 nodes may be connected to the bus.
TRC-8543 Hardware Overview
The TRC-8543 has one full-featured CAN port that is isolated from the host it is
plugged into. Software can select between either an NXP TJA1043T High-Speed CAN
transceiver or NXP TJA1055T Low-Speed/Fault-Tolerant CAN transceiver by
controlling on-board relays. The TJA1043T is fully compatible with the ISO 11898
standard and supports baud rates up to 2 Mbps. The NI-XNET driver enables baud
rates up to 8 Mbps. The TJA1055T is fully compatible with the ISO 11898 standard
and supports baud rates up to 125 Kbps.
