SN65LBC172ADW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum data rate that the SN65LBC172ADW can support?
  The SN65LBC172ADW can support data rates up to 100 Mbps.
• Can the SN65LBC172ADW be used in a multi-point bus configuration?
  Yes, the SN65LBC172ADW can be used in a multi-point bus configuration, but it requires the use of external resistors to terminate the bus.
• How do I ensure reliable operation of the SN65LBC172ADW in a noisy environment?
  To ensure reliable operation in a noisy environment, it is recommended to use a common-mode choke or a ferrite bead in series with the bus to filter out electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• What is the maximum cable length that can be used with the SN65LBC172ADW?
  The maximum cable length that can be used with the SN65LBC172ADW depends on the specific application and the type of cable used. However, as a general rule, cable lengths up to 100 meters are commonly used.
• Can the SN65LBC172ADW be used in a hot-swappable application?
  Yes, the SN65LBC172ADW can be used in a hot-swappable application, but it requires the use of external circuitry to ensure that the bus is properly terminated and that the device is powered down before the hot-swap event.
