Features
Description
Protected from Overvoltage Line Faults to ±60V
nn ESD Protection to IEC-1000-4-2 Level 4
±15kV Air Gap Test
±8kV Contact Mode Test
nn ISO 11898 Compatible
nn High Input Impedance Supports Up to 256 Nodes
nn Controlled Slew Rates for EMI Emissions Control
nn High Impedance Outputs When Off or
Powered Down
nn Short-Circuit Protection On All Outputs
nn Thermal Shutdown Protection
nn Pin Compatible with Philips PCA82C251
The LT®1796 CAN transceiver provides built-in fault tolerance to survive in industrial and automotive environments.
Discrete protection devices are not needed. Bus interface
pins can withstand voltage faults up to ± 60V with respect
to ground with no damage to the device. Faults may occur while the transceiver is active, shut down or powered
off. On-chip ESD protection withstands up to ±15kV air
discharges and ± 8kV contact mode discharges tested per
IEC-1000-4-2. Loss of power or ground connections does
not damage the IC.
nn
The circuit operates with data rates up to 125kbaud. A
slew control pin allows control of transmitted data pulse
edges to control EMI and reflection problems on imperfectly terminated lines. High output current drive allows
the use of inexpensive PVC cable with impedance as low
as 72Ω. The 100kΩ input impedance allows up to 256
transceivers per data network.

Pin Functions
TXD (Pin 1): Driver Input. Logic-level thresholds are set
by VREF. A logic input level higher than VREF turns the
driver outputs off, releasing control of the CANH and
CANL lines. A logic input less than VREF turns the driver
outputs on, pulling CANH high and CANL low. An open
TXD input will float high, turning the driver outputs off.
The TXD input pin can withstand voltages from –0.3V to
44V with no damage.
CANL (Pin 6): CAN Bus Low Data Line. The CANL pin is
one input to the receiver and the low driver output. In the
dominant state (TXD low), the driver pulls the CANL pin
to within 1V of GND. In the recessive state (TXD high),
the driver output stays high impedance. The CANL pin is
protected from voltage faults from –60V to 60V in dominant, recessive, standby or powered off modes. On-chip
ESD protection meets IEC-1000-4-2 levels.
GND (Pin 2): Ground.
CANH (Pin 7): CAN Bus High Data Line. The CANH pin
is one input to the receiver and the high driver output. In
the dominant state (TXD low), the driver pulls the CANH
pin to within 1V of VCC. In the recessive state (TXD high),
the driver output stays high impedance. The CANH pin is
protected from voltage faults from –60V to 60V in dominant, recessive, standby or powered off modes. On-chip
ESD protection meets IEC-1000-4-2 levels.
VCC (Pin 3): Positive Supply Input. Normal operation is
with a 4.75V to 5.25V supply. Operation with supplies up
to 44V is possible with unterminated bus lines. Operation
at high voltages with normally terminated busses will
result in excessive power dissipation and activation of the
thermal shutdown circuit. VCC should be decoupled with
a 0.1µF low ESR capacitor placed as close to the supply
pin as possible.
RXD (Pin 4): Receiver TTL Level-Logic Output. A high level
output indicates a recessive state (zero-volt differential)
bus. A dominant state forces a low receiver output.
VREF (Pin 5): Reference Output. The reference voltage sets
the TXD input threshold and the recessive bus common
mode voltage at CANH and CANL. VREF is approximately
VCC/2 for low voltage operation. When VCC > 7.5V, VREF
maintains a 3.5V level.
6
RS (Pin 8): Slope Control. This pin is a multifunction
control pin. When RS is high (VRS > 4V), the circuit goes
into a low power standby mode. In standby, the driver
always stays in a high impedance (recessive) state. The
receiver operates in a low power (slow) monitoring mode.
Received data may be used to “wake-up” the system to full
functionality. Full speed normal operation occurs if RS is
tied low through a resistance of less than 3k. The current
out of RS will be limited to about 500µA in the low state.
Controlling the current out of RS with a resistor greater
than 3k or by using a current source allows slew rate
control of the data output onto CANH and CANL.
