120 Ohm Termination Jumpers

Jumpers J1 and J4 will enable a 120 Ohm termination resistor across the CAN-H and CAN-L lines. Termination is always recommended for improved signal integrity, especially for long transmission lines. Termination requirements should be evaluated on a case by case basis. Typically both ends of a CAN bus are terminated, but termination is not enabled on cards that sit in the middle of the bus. See Figure 4 and Figure 5 for examples that indicate when to use this jumper selection.

NOTE:

The 120 Ohm termination jumper must be installed in this situation.
