The CAN-CR220 repeater with two CAN channels is used for the
galvanic isolation of two segments of a CAN network and offers
a very high galvanic isolation of 4 kV DC/3.5 kV AC for 1 second,
allowing it to be utilized in medical applications. It can be used
to improve the load capacity of the CAN bus with nodes, to
establish a physical coupling of two segments of a CAN bus
system or to insert a galvanic isolation.
The CAN repeater creates the necessary flexibility to optimize
the structure of CAN networks and to free CAN networks from
the restriction to the bus structure. It separates a defective
segment from the rest of the network, allowing the remaining
network to continue working. The galvanic isolation isolates the
CAN segments from each other as well as from the power
supply.
