SN65HVD257 EVM Setup and Operation for Redundant (Parallel Networks)
3.3
Using CAN Bus Protection and Filtering Configuration
The EVM also has component footprints for various protection schemes to enhance robustness for
extreme system-level EMC requirements.
summarizes these options. Typical examples of for
these components are: CM choke (TDK ACT45B series and EPCOS B82789 series from 11µH to 100µH),
bus filter capacitors are typically 100pF or less, TVS diodes from the MMBZ series 27V or lower, varistors
such as the TDK AVR series).
