SN65LBC173AD datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN65LBC173AD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum data rate that the SN65LBC173AD can support?
  The SN65LBC173AD can support data rates up to 100 Mbps.
• Can the SN65LBC173AD be used in a multi-point bus configuration?
  Yes, the SN65LBC173AD can be used in a multi-point bus configuration, but it requires the use of external resistors to terminate the bus.
• How do I ensure that the SN65LBC173AD is properly terminated?
  To ensure proper termination, a 120-ohm resistor should be connected between the CANH and CANL pins, and a 60-ohm resistor should be connected between the CANH pin and VCC, and between the CANL pin and GND.
• What is the maximum cable length that can be used with the SN65LBC173AD?
  The maximum cable length that can be used with the SN65LBC173AD is dependent on the specific application and the type of cable used. However, as a general rule, the cable length should not exceed 40 meters.
• Can the SN65LBC173AD be used in a CAN FD (Flexible Data-Rate) application?
  No, the SN65LBC173AD is only compatible with traditional CAN (Controller Area Network) protocols and is not compatible with CAN FD.
