Abstract
A reflection attenuation device for a bus of a bus system and a method for attenuating reflections during a data transfer in a bus system. The reflection attenuation device may close off a free end of bus lines of the bus in a transceiver device of a user station of the bus system. Alternatively, the reflection attenuation device may be connected to a branch point of the bus which is a star point or is used to connect a user station to the bus. Thus, bus users in a vehicle trailer are also connectable to the bus system of the vehicle, as needed. The reflection attenuation device includes at least one pair of electrical semiconductor components connected in parallel, and at least one capacitor that is connected in series to the pair of electrical semiconductor components connected in parallel, for attenuating reflections on a bus line of the bus.
