Dear all.
Q1)
We intend to use both Dual Channel LIN Transceivers in master mode as depicted in the application diagram in the datasheet, which suggests connecting a diode and a 1k resistor between LIN & Vbat.
However, would there be any issue if we share the diode and resistor for dual-channel use? If so, could you please explain the reason?
Q2)
Similarly, we'd like to inquire whether there would be any issues if we use Dual TVS diodes instead of individually connecting ESD protection diodes to the LIN bus.
Thank you.
