EVAL-LT3960-AZ Evaluation Circuit

Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-LT3960-AZ Evaluation Circuit features the LT3960, an I²C to CAN-Physical transceiver in a 10-lead plastic MSOP package. The EVAL-LT3960-AZ consists of two ICs configured in the master and slave mode using selectable jumpers, JP1 and JP3. The board is designed to be easily snapped apart at the center, separating two circuitries. The LT3960 I²C to CAN-Physical transceiver is used to send and receive I²C data through harsh or noisy environments at up to 400kb/s. It uses the CAN-Physical layer for differential signaling over twisted pair connections. The SDA and SCL data lines are converted to differential signals and are shared between devices connected to the bus. This allows for the physical separation of the I²C source and I²C receiver.
