ISO1044 Isolated CAN Transceiver Evaluation Module
This user’s guide describes the evaluation module (EVM) for the family of ISO1044 isolated CAN
transceivers. This EVM allows designers to evaluate device performance for fast development and
analysis of isolated systems. The EVM supports evaluation of all ISO1044 devices in a 8-pin SOIC (D)
package.
CAUTION
This evaluation module is made available for isolator parameter performance
evaluation only and is not intended for isolation voltage testing. To prevent
damage to the EVM, any voltage applied as a supply or digital input/output
must be maintained within the 0 V to 5.5 V recommended operating range.

Introduction
This user’s guide describes EVM operation with respect to the ISO1044 isolated CAN transceiver. The
EVM includes test points for all main points where probing is necessary for evaluation such as GND, VCC,
TXD, RXD, CANH, CANL. The EVM supports many options for CAN bus configuration. It is pre-configured
with a split termination network with a common-mode capacitance and additional caps on the bus for
protection. It also includes an option to populate a 120-Ω resistor which can be used with the EVM as a
terminated line end (CAN is defined for 120-Ω impedance twisted pair cable). Pads are provided to add
protection components like TVS diodes and common mode (CM) chokes. By default, bypass paths are
used around those devices.Using these options, the customer is allowed installation of the desired
components. This guide describes the EVM schematic, layout and typical laboratory setup. A typical input
and output waveform is also presented.

Overview
The ISO1044 device is a galvanically-isolated controller area network (CAN) transceiver that meets the
specifications of the ISO11898-2 (2016) standard. The ISO1044 device offers ±58-V DC bus fault
protection and ±12-V common-mode voltage range. The device supports up to 5-Mbps data rate in CAN
FD mode allowing much faster transfer of payload compared to classic CAN. This device uses a silicon
dioxide (SiO2) insulation barrier with a withstand voltage of 3000 VRMS. Used in conjunction with isolated
power supplies, the device prevents noise currents on a data bus or other circuits from entering the local
ground and interfering with or damaging sensitive circuitry.
