High Speed
Connect RS to ground to set the MAX3050 and MAX3057
to high-speed mode. When operating in high-speed
mode, the MAX3050 and MAX3057 can achieve trans-
mission rates of up to 2Mbps. Line drivers are switched on
and off as quickly as possible. However, in this mode, no
measures are taken to limit the rise and fall slope of the
data signal, allowing for potential EMI emissions. If using
the MAX3050 and MAX3057 in high-speed mode, use
shielded twistedpair cable to avoid EMI problems.
Slope Control
Connect a resistor from RS to ground to select slope-
control mode. (See Table 2.) In slope-control mode, the
gates of the line drivers are charged with a controlled
current, proportional to the resistor connected to the RS
pin. Transmission speed ranges from 40kbps to 500kbps.
Controlling the rise and fall slope reduces EMI and allows
the use of an unshielded twisted pair or a parallel pair of
wires as bus lines. The transfer function for selecting the
resistor value is given by:
RRS (kΩ) = 12000/speed (in kbps).
See the Slew Rate vs. RRS graph in the Typical Operating
Characteristics section.
Shutdown
In shutdown mode, the device is switched off. The outputs
are high impedance to ± 80V. The MAX3057 features a pul-
lup at SHDN. If shutdown is forced low and then left floating,
the device remains in shutdown until SHDN is forced high.
Receiver
The receiver reads differential input from the bus lines
(CANH, CANL) and transfers this data as a singleended
output (RXD) to the CAN controller. It consists of a compar-
ator that senses the difference ΔV = (CANH - CANL) with
respect to an internal threshold of 0.7V. If this difference is
positive (i.e., ΔV > 0.7V) a logic-low is present at the RXD
pin. If negative (i.e., ΔV < 0.7V), a logic-high is present.
The receiver always echoes the transmitted data.
The CANH and CANL common-mode range is -7V to
+12V. RXD is logic high when CANH and CANL are short-
ed or terminated and undriven. If the differential receiver
input voltage (CANH - CANL) is less than or equal to 0.5V,
RXD is logic high. If (CANH - CANL) is greater than or
equal to 0.9V, RXD is logic low.
Standby
The MAX3050 and MAX3057 transmitters are threes-
tated, and the receivers are active in standby. This allows
the device to read data on the bus while reducing power
consumption.
Receivers take up to 10ms to wake up from standby
mode. Therefore, the first bits of information read off the
bus when coming out of standby can be lost.
Thermal Shutdown
If the junction temperature exceeds +160°C, the device is
switched off. The hysteresis is approximately 20°C, dis-
abling thermal shutdown once the temperature reaches
+140°C.

* As defined by ISO, bus value is one of two complementary logical values: dominant or recessive. The dominant value represents
the logical 0 and the recessive represents the logical 1. During the simultaneous transmission of the dominant and recessive bits, the
resulting bus value is dominant.
