Description
The TRC-8542, a prominent model in the lineup of Automotive Networking Products, is manufactured by National Instruments and stands out due to its HS/ISO-FD CAN External Interface. This product is distinguished by its array of part numbers which include 142689-01L, 154066-02, 783699-02, and 783699-03, catering to a broad spectrum of applications and user needs.
At the heart of its design, the TRC-8542 incorporates the NXP TJA1043T as its integrated transceiver, a choice that underscores the device’s reliability and high performance in automotive networking tasks. This model is engineered to thrive in demanding environments, demonstrated by its impressive maximum baud rate of 5 Mbps, which facilitates swift and efficient data transmission.
In terms of durability and resilience, the TRC-8542 is designed to handle input voltage limits for CAN_H and CAN_L ranging from -27 to +40 VDC, ensuring its operational integrity under various electrical conditions. Furthermore, it maintains an output voltage limit for CAN HIGH and CAN LOW at a stable 5 VDC, adding another layer of reliability.
Remarkably, the TRC-8542 is self-sufficient in its power requirements. It features an internal power source, eliminating the need for external power supplies or drawing power from the CAN bus. This autonomy is particularly beneficial in simplifying installation and maintenance processes. The device is intended exclusively for the measurement of CAT I signals, highlighting its specialized application in automotive networks.
Despite its advanced capabilities, the TRC-8542 maintains an economical power consumption in active mode, only requiring 50 mW. This efficiency not only ensures minimal energy usage but also contributes to the longevity of the device by reducing the risk of overheating and other power-related issues.
