DESCRIPTION
The SN65HVD230, SN65HVD231, and SN65HVD232 controller area network (CAN) transceivers are designed
for use with the Texas Instruments TMS320Lx240x 3.3-V DSPs with CAN controllers, or with equivalent
devices. They are intended for use in 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 especially-harsh environments, these devices feature cross-wire protection,
loss-of-ground and overvoltage protection, overtemperature protection, as well as wide common-mode range.
The transceiver interfaces the single-ended CAN controller with the differential CAN bus found in industrial,
building automation, and automotive applications. 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.
On the SN65HVD230 and SN65HVD231, pin 8 provides three different modes of operation: high-speed, slope
control, and low-power modes. The high-speed mode of operation is selected by connecting pin 8 to ground,
allowing the transmitter output transistors to switch on and off as fast as possible with no limitation on the rise
and fall slopes. The rise and fall slopes can be adjusted by connecting a resistor to ground at pin 8, since the
slope is proportional to the pin’s output current. This slope control is implemented with external resistor values
of 10 kΩ, to achieve a 15-V/μs slew rate, to 100 kΩ, to achieve a 2-V/μs slew rate. See the Application
Information section of this data sheet.
The circuit of the SN65HVD230 enters a low-current standby mode during which the driver is switched off and
the receiver remains active if a high logic level is applied to pin 8. The DSP controller reverses this low-current
standby mode when a dominant state (bus differential voltage > 900 mV typical) occurs on the bus.
The unique difference between the SN65HVD230 and the SN65HVD231 is that both the driver and the receiver
are switched off in the SN65HVD231 when a high logic level is applied to pin 8 and remain in this sleep mode
until the circuit is reactivated by a low logic level on pin 8.
The Vref pin 5 on the SN65HVD230 and SN65HVD231 is available as a VCC/2 voltage reference.
The SN65HVD232 is a basic CAN transceiver with no added options; pins 5 and 8 are NC, no connection.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
This application provides information concerning the implementation of the physical medium attachment layer
in a CAN network according to the ISO 11898 standard. It presents a typical application circuit and test results,
as well as discussions on slope control, total loop delay, and interoperability in 5-V systems.
introduction
ISO 11898 is the international standard for high-speed serial communication using the controller area network
(CAN) bus protocol. It supports multimaster operation, real-time control, programmable data rates up to 1 Mbps,
and powerful redundant error checking procedures that provide reliable data transmission. It is suited for
networking intelligent devices as well as sensors and actuators within the rugged electrical environment of a
machine chassis or factory floor. The SN65HVD230 family of 3.3-V CAN transceivers implement the lowest
layers of the ISO/OSI reference model. This is the interface with the physical signaling output of the CAN
controller of the Texas Instruments TMS320Lx240x 3.3–V DSPs, as illustrated in Figure 27.

application of the SN65HVD230
Figure 28 illustrates a typical application of the SN65HVD230 family. The output of a DSP’s CAN controller is
connected to the serial driver input, pin D, and receiver serial output, pin R, of the transceiver. The transceiver
is then attached to the differential bus lines at pins CANH and CANL. Typically, the bus is a twisted pair of wires
with a characteristic impedance of 120 Ω, in the standard half-duplex multipoint topology of Figure 29. Each end
of the bus is terminated with 120-Ω resistors in compliance with the standard to minimize signal reflections on
the bus.

up to 1 Mbps as defined by the ISO 11898 standard.
features of the SN65HVD230, SN65HVD231, and SN65HVD232
The SN65HVD230/231/232 are pin-compatible (but not functionally identical) with one another and, depending
upon the application, may be used with identical circuit boards.
These transceivers feature 3.3-V operation and standard compatibility with signaling rates up to 1 Mbps, and
also offer 16-kV HBM ESD protection on the bus pins, thermal shutdown protection, bus fault protection, and
open-circuit receiver failsafe. The fail-safe design of the receiver assures a logic high at the receiver output if
the bus wires become open circuited. If a high ambient operating environment temperature or excessive output
current result in thermal shutdown, the bus pins become high impedance, while the D and R pins default to a
logic high.

features of the SN65HVD230, SN65HVD231, and SN65HVD232 (continued)
The bus pins are also maintained in a high-impedance state during low VCC conditions to ensure glitch-free
power-up and power-down bus protection for hot-plugging applications. This high-impedance condition also
means that an unpowered node does not disturb the bus. Transceivers without this feature usually have a very
low output impedance. This results in a high current demand when the transceiver is unpowered, a condition
that could affect the entire bus.
operating modes
RS (pin 8) of the SN65HVD230 and SN65HVD231 provides for three different modes of operation: high-speed
mode, slope-control mode, and low-power mode.
high-speed
The high-speed mode can be selected by applying a logic low to RS (pin 8). The high-speed mode of operation
is commonly employed in industrial applications. High-speed allows the output to switch as fast as possible with
no internal limitation on the output rise and fall slopes. The only limitations of the high-speed operation are cable
length and radiated emission concerns, each of which is addressed by the slope control mode of operation.
If the low-power standby mode is to be employed in the circuit, direct connection to a DSP output pin can be
used to switch between a logic-low level (< 1 V) for high speed operation, and the logic-high level (> 0.75 VCC)
for standby. Figure 30 shows a typical DSP connection, and Figure 31 shows the HVD230 driver output signal
in high-speed mode on the CAN bus.

slope control
Electromagnetic compatibility is essential in many applications using unshielded bus cable to reduce system
cost. To reduce the electromagnetic interference generated by fast rise times and resulting harmonics, the rise
and fall slopes of the SN65HVD230 and SN65HVD231 driver outputs can be adjusted by connecting a resistor
from RS (pin 8) to ground or to a logic low voltage, as shown in Figure 32. The slope of the driver output signal
is proportional to the pin’s output current. This slope control is implemented with an external resistor value of
10 kΩ to achieve a ≈ 15 V/μs slew rate, and up to 100 kΩ to achieve a ≈ 2.0 V/μs slew rate as displayed in
Figure 33. Typical driver output waveforms from a pulse input signal with and without slope control are displayed
in Figure 34. A pulse input is used rather than NRZ data to clearly display the actual slew rate.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
standby mode (listen only mode) of the HVD230
If a logic high (> 0.75 VCC) is applied to RS (pin 8) in Figures 30 and 32, the circuit of the SN65HVD230 enters
a low-current, listen only standby mode, during which the driver is switched off and the receiver remains active.
In this listen only state, the transceiver is completely passive to the bus. It makes no difference if a slope control
resistor is in place as shown in Figure 32. The DSP can reverse this low-power standby mode when the rising
edge of a dominant state (bus differential voltage > 900 mV typical) occurs on the bus. The DSP, sensing bus
activity, reactivates the driver circuit by placing a logic low (< 1.2 V) on RS (pin 8).
the babbling idiot protection of the HVD230
Occasionally, a runaway CAN controller unintentionally sends messages that completely tie up the bus (what
is referred to in CAN jargon as a babbling idiot). When this occurs, the DSP can engage the listen-only standby
mode to disengage the driver and release the bus, even when access to the CAN controller has been lost. When
the driver circuit is deactivated, its outputs default to a high-impedance state.
sleep mode of the HVD231
The unique difference between the SN65HVD230 and the SN65HVD231 is that both driver and receiver are
switched off in the SN65HVD231 when a logic high is applied to RS (pin 8). The device remains in a very low
power-sleep mode until the circuit is reactivated with a logic low applied to RS (pin 8). While in this sleep mode,
the bus-pins are in a high-impedance state, while the D and R pins default to a logic high.
loop propagation delay
Transceiver loop delay is a measure of the overall device propagation delay, consisting of the delay from the
driver input to the differential outputs, plus the delay from the receiver inputs to its output.
The loop delay of the transceiver displayed in Figure 35 increases accordingly when slope control is being used.
This increased loop delay means that the total bus length must be reduced to meet the CAN bit-timing
requirements of the overall system. The loop delay becomes ≈100 ns when employing slope control with a
10-kΩ resistor, and ≈500 ns with a 100-kΩ resistor. Therefore, considering that the rule-of-thumb propagation
delay of typical bus cable is 5 ns/m, slope control with the 100-kΩ resistor decreases the allowable bus length
by the difference between the 500-ns max loop delay and the loop delay with no slope control, 70.7 ns. This
equates to (500–70.7 ns)/5 ns, or approximately 86 m less bus length. This slew-rate/bus length trade-off to
reduce electromagnetic interference to adjoining circuits from the bus can also be solved with a quality shielded
bus cable.

interoperability with 5-V CAN systems
It is essential that the 3.3-V HVD230 family performs seamlessly with 5-V transceivers because of the large
number of 5-V devices installed. Figure 36 displays a test bus of a 3.3-V node with the HVD230, and three 5-V
