ABSTRACT
Common-modechokesarefrequentlyusedinautomotiveCANnetworkstoincrease
systemreliabilitywithrespecttoelectromagneticcompatibility(EMC).Electromagnetic
interferenceemittedfromanElectronicControlModule(ECU)throughtheCAN
transceivercanbefiltered,thuslimitingunwantedhigh-frequencynoiseonthe
communicationbus.Anotherreasonforusingacommon-modechokeisattemptingto
improvethesusceptibility(immunity)ofthetransceivertoelectromagneticdisturbances
onthebus.
Whiletheabovementionedeffectsofthecommon-modechokearebeneficial,
unexpectedresultscanoccurundercertainconditions.EMCsusceptibilitycanbe
degradedinsomefrequencyranges,bussignalintegrityworsened,andextremelyhigh
transientvoltagesunderbus-failureconditionscanbegenerated,which,intheworst
case,canleadtodamageintheCANtransceiverandothernetworkcomponents.
Careshouldbetakeninthechoiceofcommon-modechoke(windingtype,coretype,
andinductancevalue),alongwiththeterminationandprotectionschemeofthenode
andbustopreventdamagetotheCANtransceiverorothernetworkcomponents.This
