HIGHLIGHTS The SN65HVD230Q, SN65HVD231Q and SN65HVD232Q controller area network (CAN) transceivers are designed for use with the Texas Instruments TMS320Lx240x 3.3-V DSPs and Microcontrollers with CAN controllers or equivalent devices. They are intended for use in automotive applications employing the CAN serial communication physical layer in accordance with the ISO 11898 standard. Each CAN transceiver is designed to provide differential transmit capability to the bus and differential receive capability to a CAN controller at speeds up to 1 Mbps. Designed for operation in extremely harsh environments, these devices feature cross-wire protection, loss-of-ground and over-voltage protection, over-temperature protection, as well as wide common-mode range. The transceiver interfaces the single-ended CAN controller with the differential CAN bus. It operates over a –2-V to 7-V common-mode range on the bus, and it can withstand common-mode transients of ±25 V.
