PCA82C250N driver transceiver

The PCA82C250/251 transceiver products basically provide interfacing between a protocol controller and a physical transmission line. They are designed to transmit data with a bit rate of up to 1 Mbit/s over a two-wire differential voltage bus line as described in the ISO 11898 standard. Their general features are listed in the data sheets
(see [1] and [2]).
Both devices are designed for the use in CAN bus systems with a nominal supply voltage of 12 V (PCA82C250)
and 24 V (PCA82C251) respectively. They are functionally identical and can be used in automotive and general
industrial applications according to the relevant standards e.g. the ISO 11898 standard [3] and the DeviceNetTM
Specification [5]. Both the PCA82C250 and the PCA82C251 can communicate to one another in one network.
Moreover they are pin- & function-compatible i.e. they can be used with identical printed circuit boards
