8.1 Technical Data for DRVcan 251
Transceiver type Philips 82c251
Current consumption 40 mA (average)
Maximum bus speed 1 Mbit/s
DRVcan 251 does not have built-in CAN bus termination.
8.2 Technical Data for DRVcan 1053
Transceiver type Philips TJA1053
Current consumption 20 mA (average)
Maximum bus speed 125 kbit/s
Built-in termination, RTH
4.7 kΩ
Built-in termination, RTL
4.7 kΩ
Note: the termination resistors RTH and RTL are optimized for bus analyzing tools. This means that
they do not load the bus enough to ensure proper signal levels if there are no other "real" nodes on the
bus. If you connect just two DRVcan 1053:s to a long (several meters) bus, the communication may or
may not work.
8.3 Technical Data for DRVcan 1054
Transceiver type Philips TJA1054
Current consumption 20 mA (average)
Maximum bus speed 125 kbit/s
Built-in termination, RTH
4.7 kΩ
Built-in termination, RTL
4.7 kΩ
Note: the termination resistors RTH and RTL are optimized for bus analyzing tools. This means that
they do not load the bus enough to ensure proper signal levels if there are no other "real" nodes on the
bus. If you connect just two DRVcan 1054:s to a long (several meters) bus, the communication may or
may not work.
8.4 Technical Data for DRVcan DNopto
Transceiver type Philips 82c251
Current consumption 80 mA (average)
Maximum bus speed 1 Mbit/s
Optocoupler type HCPL 7101-3
Optocoupler delay 20 ns
Isolation voltage 50 V AC, 70 V DC
The transceiver in the DRVcan DNopto can be powered either from the Kvaser LAPcan, or externally
by connecting a power source to pin 9 on the D-SUB.
There is no built-in CAN bus termination in the DRVcan DNopto.
