6.2 CAN Bus
The bus coupling can optionally be galvanically isolated. With galvanic isolation the shield of
the CAN connector is connected to CAN ground through a 1 MΩ resistor and a 10 nF capacitor.
The shields of the CAN connectors are connected directly together.
For a not galvanically isolated interface, the CAN ground and PC ground are at the same
potential.
For best noise immunity use shielded CAN cables.

Low-Profile Version
Fig. 3 Low-profile version
In the low-profile version, only the Sub-D9 connector of CAN 1 is implemented. It is possible to
output the signals of CAN 2 to a second slot bracket.
uTo connect second slot bracket to the interface plug ribbon cable in connector (1) on in-
terface and in connector on second slot bracket.
6.3 Expansions
The fieldbus expansion connectors can be used to extend each CAN circuit with fieldbus expan-
sions for additional fieldbuses (exclusively galvanically isolated interfaces). The signals of the
additional fieldbuses are applied to the corresponding CAN connector.
The CAN expansion board connector can be used to connect a CAN expansion board that can
provide up to two additional CAN interfaces and fieldbus expansions.
6.4 Synchronization Connector (Option)
The optional synchronization connector can be used to connect multiple CAN interfaces togeth-
er for synchronization (exclusively CAN-IB200/600/PCIe and CAN-IB400/800/PCI). For order
number of appropriate cable see www.ixxat.com.

7.1 Fieldbus expansion
Fig. 5 Fieldbus expansion
If there is a low-speed CAN transceiver on the fieldbus expansion, it is possible to switch via
software between the high-speed CAN transceiver on the interface and the low-speed CAN
transceiver on the fieldbus expansion. The signals of the fieldbus moduls are connected to the
appropriate Sub-D9 connector.
Simultaneous operation of low-speed CAN and LIN is also possible.
Use fieldbus expansions exclusively in conjunction with galvanically isolated CAN
channels.
