Common vehicle bus
As the control of each system in the vehicle is becoming smarter and more automated, the electrical system of vehicle is getting more and more complex. Data exchange is required between the functional systems of the vehicle, the functional system and the vehicle display instrument, as well as the functional system and the vehicle fault diagnosis system. Traditional point-to-point data exchange method may result in complicated wiring system and high failure rate. Therefore, vehicle manufacturers have studied and defined various vehicle bus standards to reduce the complexity of wiring harness network, failure rate of electronic system, and cost of the vehicle. Among them, CAN bus is the most widely used.
Features of CAN bus
- Signal transmission: Differential transmission adopted for strong anti-interference ability and application in strong interference environment in the vehicle
- Communication speed: Transmission rate of up to 10kbps~5Mbps to meet the requirements of most applications in the vehicle
- Flexible system: Nodes to be added without any software or hardware change
- Multi accesses: Multi-host broadcast structure available
- Information transmission: Fixed message format with priority automatically arbitrated by multiplex ID node
- Error detection: Error detection provided to resend the error and check and receive the CRC automatically with very low data error
Based on the above characteristics, CAN bus can be used for real-time and reliable data transmission and normal communication of vehicle network; In addition, the industrial chain of CAN chip is pretty complete in respect of production, communication standard protocols, software tool support and application, which plays a very important role in automotive applications.
Application circuit reference of CAN system
Increased electronic components in the vehicle bring high electromagnetic interference for both the vehicle and systems on it. Different from traditional vehicles, new energy vehicles use electric drive systems for driving. Switching of high-power devices causes large voltage and current mutations when charging and discharging, probably causing serious EMC problems, and bringing high EMC performance requirements for bus interface chips widely used in vehicles. For better EMC performance, the complement and perfection of the peripheral circuit in the system is also very important in addition to chip design. The following is a typical application circuit diagram of the CAN transceiver system:
Typical Application Circuit Diagram of the CAN Transceiver System
Due to the common-mode high resistance and differential-mode low resistance characteristics of the common-mode inductor, placing the common-mode inductor near the transceiver bus (frame c, recommended value: 100uH) can effectively filter out the high-frequency noise outside the bus and the common-mode noise generated by the CAN transceiver due to signal asymmetry, without affecting the transmission quality of CAN differential signal. Therefore, it can improve the anti-interference ability of the system and reduce the EMI of the system.
A capacitor to ground (100pF recommended) can be placed for the bus to effectively filter out the transient overshoot of the vehicle CAN bus (such as ESD, ISO7637 pulse, etc.) provided that the system speed and load quantity are not affected.
It is recommended that the 120Ω terminal matching resistors of the bus be composed in series by two 60Ω resistors and grounded by the capacitor (4.7nF recommended) at the middle connection point. This helps to improve signal consistency between CANH and CANL buses, reduce EMI, direct the common-mode interference here to the ground to reduce the interference to the bus.
Since systems on the vehicle have high ESD requirements, a dedicated ESD protection device (frame a, such as PESD2CAN) with a small parasitic capacitor placed near the bus interface can effectively enhance the ESD protection of the chip.
In addition, the errors of bus connection load capacitance and matching resistance should be as small as possible to avoid common mode interference caused by bus signal asymmetry.
Introduction to NOVOSENSE CAN transceiver chip
German C&S Authoritative Recognition
NOVOSENSE has obtained the German C&S conformance report for its automobile-qualified CAN chip (NCA1042x-Q1/NCA1051x-Q1).
