Estimating max total supply current of all CAN transceivers on the bus
I'm designing the devices that should communicate via a long CAN bus (500+ meters). The power (24V) to the devices is delivered via the same bus cable (UTP5e), by the rest 3 pairs.
The limiting factor ...

Can you use a CAN FD transceiver for low speed (fault tolerant) CAN?
Fault tolerant CAN (ISO11898-3) is terminated differently than high speed CAN (ISO11898-2). Therefore the signal levels for dominant and especially recessive bits differ.
Newer CAN FD compatible ...
