SN65HVD230 — Datasheet Summary, Specs & Alternatives

01 — Overview

This TI datasheet covers the SN65HVD230, SN65HVD231, and SN65HVD232, which are 3.3-V CAN bus transceivers compatible with ISO 11898-2 standards. Designed for data rates up to 1 Mbps, these devices support industrial automation, motor control, and telecom applications. Key features include low standby current (370 µA), ultra-low sleep current (40 nA), thermal shutdown protection, glitch-free power sequencing, and ESD protection exceeding ±16 kV HBM. The series offers adjustable driver transition times to improve emissions and high input impedance allowing up to 120 nodes on a bus.
