Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power system technology, and in particular to a daisy-chain type CAN bus cascade end resistor adaptive matching system. Background Technology

[0002] CAN is a serial bus that uses a multi-master contention architecture. The CAN bus consists of two communication lines: CAN_H and CAN_L. CAN bus communication is stable and has strong anti-interference capabilities, making it a commonly used communication bus in industrial fields. When using the CAN bus, 120Ω terminating resistors need to be inserted at both ends of the bus to suppress signal reflection. Terminating resistors are only required at the beginning and end points; intermediate nodes do not need to be equipped with them. Neglecting terminating resistors or installing them at intermediate nodes will affect the stability of CAN bus communication.

[0003] A daisy-chain topology connects devices or components one by one in a linear sequence. This connection method has low wiring costs and is easy to expand, so it is widely used in modular design products. A daisy-chain connection forms a serial link: device A → device B → device C → ... → device N. The CAN bus is simple in structure (only two communication lines), provides stable communication, and has strong anti-interference capabilities. In daisy-chain cascading scenarios, the CAN bus is usually chosen as the communication bus. When using CAN bus communication in a daisy-chain cascade connection, the CAN bus requires terminating resistors at both ends, while intermediate nodes cannot. This necessitates fixing the devices at both ends of the daisy-chain connection; the two devices at the beginning and end are mandatory and can only be installed at the ends, not arbitrarily. This severely limits the flexibility of the daisy-chain connection and increases equipment production management, requiring the determination of which devices are at the ends and which are configured with terminating resistors, as well as the determination of whether intermediate nodes are configured with terminating resistors. It also increases the difficulty of on-site installation, requiring a clear identification of which devices are configured with terminating resistors and which are not, strictly adhering to the rule of installing devices with terminating resistors at the ends and devices without terminating resistors in the middle. Therefore, to solve the above technical problems, there is an urgent need to propose a daisy-chain CAN bus cascade end resistor adaptive matching system. Utility Model Content
