Abstract
A differential bus network comprising: a bus comprising two bus wires; at least three nodes each comprising: a transceiver comprising: bus terminals for coupling, respectively, to the two wires of the bus; a receiver arrangement configured to receive differential signalling from the bus terminals and determine a digital receive signal based on said differential signalling; and a transmitter arrangement configured to apply differential signalling to the bus terminals based on a digital transmit signal, the transmitter arrangement comprising a first transmitter configured to increase the potential difference between the wires of the bus to a first differential voltage state and maintain the first differential state and a suppression element configured to decrease the potential difference between the two wires of the bus towards a second differential voltage state, the transmitter arrangement further comprising a resistor coupled between the bus terminals configured to at least maintain the second differential voltage state.
