The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 are interfaces
between the protocol controller and the physical wires
of the bus lines in a controller area network (CAN). The
devices provide differential transmit capability and
switch to single-wire mode if certain fault conditions
occur. The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 guarantee
full wake-up capability during failure modes.
The extended fault-protected voltage range of CANH
and CANL bus lines of ±80V allows for use in 42V
automotive applications. Current-limiting and thermalprotection circuits protect the transmitter output stage
against overcurrent faults to prevent destruction of the
transmitter output stage. The CANH and CANL lines are
also protected against electrical transients that may occur
in an automotive environment.
The transceiver provides three low-power modes that
can be entered and exited through pins STB and EN.
An output INH pin can be used for deactivation of an
external voltage regulator.
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 are designed to provide optimal operation for a specified data rate. The
MAX3054 is ideal for high data rates of 250kbps. The
MAX3055 is used for data rates of 125kbps and the
MAX3056 is designed for 40kbps applications. For the
40kbps and 125kbps versions, a built-in slope-control
feature allows the use of unshielded cables, and receiver input filters guarantee high noise immunity.

Detailed Description
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 interface between
the protocol controller and the physical wires of the bus
lines in a CAN. The devices provide differential transmit
capability and switch to single-wire mode if certain fault
conditions occur (see the Failure Management section).
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 guarantee full wakeup capability during failure modes.
The extended fault-protection range of CANH and
CANL bus lines (±80V) allows for use in 42V automotive
applications. A current-limiting circuit protects the
transmitter output stage against overcurrent faults. This
feature prevents destruction of the transmitter output
stage. If the junction temperature exceeds a value of
approximately +165°C, the transmitter output stages
are disabled. The CANH and CANL lines are also protected against electrical transients, which can occur in
an automotive environment.
The transceiver provides three low-power modes that
can be entered and exited through pins STB and EN.
An output INH pin can be used for deactivation of an
external voltage regulator.
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 are designed to
provide optimal operation for a specified data rate. The
MAX3054 is ideal for high data rates of 250kbps. The
MAX3055 is used for data rates of 125kbps, and the
MAX3056 is designed for 40kbps applications. For the
40kbps and 125kbps versions, the built-in slope-control
feature allows the use of unshielded cables and receiver
input filters guarantee high noise immunity.
Normal Operation Mode
Transmitter
The transmitter converts a single-ended input (TXD)
from the CAN controller to differential outputs for the
bus lines (CANH, CANL).
Receiver
The receiver takes differential input from the bus lines
(CANH, CANL) and converts this data as a singleended output (RXD) to the CAN controller. It consists of
a comparator that senses the difference ∆V = (CANH CANL) with respect to an internal threshold.
BATT
The main function of BATT is to supply power to the
device when vehicle battery voltage is supplied.
BATT can handle up to +80V making it ideal for 42V
automotive systems allowing power-up of the device
when the ignition is turned on.

MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056
INH
Inhibit is an output that allows for the control of an external voltage regulator. On a wake-up request or power-up
on BATT, the transceiver sets the output INH high. This
feature enables the external voltage regulator to be shut
down during sleep mode to reduce power consumption.
INH is floating while entering the sleep mode and stays
floating during the sleep mode. If INH is left floating, it is
not set to a high level again until the following events
occur:
• Power-on (V
BATT
switching on at cold start)
• Rising or falling edge on WAKE
• Dominant signal longer than 38µs during EN or STB
at low level
The signals on STB and EN are internally set to a low
level when VCCis below a certain threshold voltage
providing fail-safe functionality.
After power-on (V
BATT
switched on) the signal on INH
becomes HIGH and an internal power-on flag is set.
This flag can be read in the power-on standby mode
through ERR (STB = 1, EN = 0) and is reset by entering
the normal operating mode.
EERRRR
ERR is a wake-up and power-on indicator, as well as an
error detector. Upon power-up, wake-up, or when a
bus failure is detected, the output signal on ERR
becomes LOW. Upon error recovery, the output signal
on ERR is set HIGH.
SSTTBB
STB is the standby digital control signal into the logic
controller. This is an active-low input that is used with
EN to define the status of the transceiver in normal and
low-power modes.
EN
EN is the enable digital control signal into the logic controller used in conjunction with STB to define the status
of the transceiver in normal and low-power modes.
WWAAKKEE
WAKE is an input to the logic controller within the
device to signal a wake-up condition. If WAKE receives
a positive or negative pulse for a period longer than
t
WAKE
, wake-up occurs.
±80V Fault-Protected/Tolerant CAN
Transceivers for In-Car Applications
If the junction temperature exceeds +165°C, the driver is
switched off. Thermal hysteresis is 15°C, disabling thermal shutdown once the temperature reaches +150°C.
Overcurrent Protection
A current-limiting circuit protects the transmitter output
stage against a short circuit to a positive and negative
battery voltage. Although the power dissipation increases
during this fault condition, this feature prevents destruction of the transmitter output stage.
Failure Management
The failure detector is fully active in normal operating
mode. After the detection of a single failure, the detector switches to the appropriate state (see Table 1).
The differential receiver threshold voltage is set to -3.2V
typically (VCC= 5V). This ensures correct reception
with a noise margin as high as possible in the normal
operating mode and in the event of failures 1, 2, 5, and 9.
If any of the wiring failures occur, the output signal on
pin ERR becomes LOW after detection. On error recov-
ery, the output signal on pin ERR becomes HIGH.

Low-Power Modes
The transceiver provides three low-power modes that can
be entered or exited through pins STB and EN (Table 3).
Sleep Mode
The sleep mode is the mode with the lowest power consumption. INH is switched to high impedance for deactivation of the external voltage regulator. CANL is biased
to the battery voltage through RTL. If the supply voltage
is provided, RXD and ERR signal the wake-up interrupt.
Standby Mode
The standby mode reacts the same as the sleep mode,
but with a HIGH level on INH. Standby mode can be
used when the external voltage regulator needs to be
kept active during low-power operation.
Power-On Standby Mode
The power-on standby mode behaves similarly to the
standby mode with the battery power-on flag of the
wake-up interrupt signal on ERR. This mode is only for
reading the power-on flag. INH can be high or low in
the power-on standby mode. When the device goes
from standby mode to power-on standby mode, INH is
HIGH. When the device goes from sleep mode to
power-on standby mode, INH is low.
Wake-Up
Wake-up requests are recognized by the transceiver
when a dominant signal is detected on either bus line
or if WAKE detects a pulse for more than 38µs. On a
wake-up request, INH is set high to activate an external
voltage regulator.
If VCCis provided, the wake-up request can be read on
the ERR or RXD outputs.
To prevent false wake-up due to transients or RF fields,
the wake-up voltage levels have to be maintained for more
than 38µs. In the low-power modes, the failure detection
circuit remains partly active to prevent increased power
consumption in the event of failures 3, 4, 7, and 8.
Applications Information
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 are capable of sustaining a network of up to 32 transceivers on a single
bus. The fault-tolerant transceivers are designed to
operate at a total termination resistance of 100Ω. Both
CANH and CANL lines are terminated with 100Ω. Since
the total termination resistance of the system is distributed over the entire bus, each of the transceivers contributes only part of the total 100Ω termination. The
values of the termination resistors RTL and RTH vary
according to the size of the system and need to be calculated. It is not required that each transceiver be terminated with the same value, the total termination need
only be a total 100Ω.
The minimum termination resistor value allowed for
each transceiver is 500Ω, due to the driving capability
of RTH and RTL. This makes it impossible to achieve a
total termination resistance of 100Ω for systems smaller
than five transceivers. Typically this does not create a
problem because smaller systems usually have shorter
bus cables and have no problem with higher total termination resistance.
To reduce EMI in the case of an interrupted bus wire it
is recommended not to exceed 6kΩ termination resistance at a single transceiver even though a higher
value is specified.

Reduced EMI and Reflections
Due to internal slope control for the MAX3055/
MAX3056, the CANH and CANL outputs are slew-rate
limited. This minimizes EMI and reduces reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables. In general, a
transmitter’s rise time relates directly to the length of an
unterminated stub, which can be driven with only minor
waveform reflections. The following equation expresses
this relationship conservatively:
Length = t
RISE
/ (15ns/ft)
where t
RISE
is the transmitter’s rise time.
The MAX3054/MAX3055/MAX3056 require no special
layout considerations beyond common practices.
