LIN Transceiver

NI-XNET LIN hardware uses the Atmel ATA6620 or ATA6625 LIN transceiver for PCI-XNET and PXI-XNET LIN Interfaces, and the NXP TJA1028 transceiver for USB, C Series, and Transceiver Cable XNET LIN interfaces.

NI PXI-8516 and PCI-8516 XNET interfaces revision F and higher use the ATA6625 LIN transceiver, while revision E and lower use the ATA6620 LIN transceiver.

To identify your PCI/PXI NI-XNET hardware revision, refer to the 19xxxx<rev>-4xL text on the green label in the top left corner on the secondary side of the board; <rev> indicates the hardware revision.

These transceivers are fully compatible with the ISO-9141 standard and support baud rates up to 20 kbps. For detailed information, refer to their respective data sheets.
