Fig. 4 Application example for an interface with galvanic isolation using optocouplers
Note: If high bit rates shall be used, e.g. 500 kbit/s or above, then high-speed optocou-
plers should be considered with a delay of less than 40ns, e.g. HCPL-7101.
The bus line is in recessive state if no bus node transmits a dominant bit, i.e. all TxD inputs in the network are
logic HIGH. Otherwise if one or multiple bus nodes transmit a dominant bit, i.e. at least one TxD input is logic
LOW, then the bus line enters the dominant state thus overriding the recessive state (wired-AND characteristic).
