How to Select the Pull-Up Resistor Value for I2C?

How to Select the Pull-Up Resistor Value for I2C?

I2C is a common serial communication interface, which is available on most processors. The I2C interface is an open-drain structure, so pull-up resistors are needed in the design to drive the high level. As shown below: Rp is the pull-up resistor, and the dashed box contains the internal I2C controller structure of the chip (for … Read more

Important Considerations for Implementing CANopen Bus

Important Considerations for Implementing CANopen Bus

CANopen is a high-level protocol based on CAN, which is widely used in various automation control systems. CANopen networks use twisted pair cables to transmit differential signals, but factors such as poor electromagnetic environment, non-standard wiring, and unreliable grounding in domestic industrial sites can directly affect communication quality and interfere with bus operation. To ensure … Read more
