Chapter 9:

CAN Terminator

The CAN terminator is used only for CAN applications. It is used to terminate the CAN
communication line.

The CAN terminations prevent the CAN signal reflection at the end of the physical lines.

The reflection suppresses the CAN signal which may lead to Error Frames and causes the CAN
controller message to be discarded. 120 Ohm resistors are required on both physical ends of
the CAN network to prevent the signal reflection.
