National Instruments 783702-02 TRC-8546 LIN Transceiver Cable
The National Instruments 783702-02 (TRC-8546) is a hardware-selectable LIN transceiver cable engineered to interface NI-XNET devices, such as the NI-9860 C Series module, directly to Local Interconnect Network (LIN) buses. Built around an NXP TJA1028 transceiver complying with the LIN 2.2 physical layer standard, the cable supports certified baud rates up to 20 kbps. Field wiring connections are routed through a 9-pin female DE-SUB connector, where pin 7 carries the LIN bus signal, pin 3 provides the LIN reference ground (COM), and pin 9 accepts external transceiver power (V SUP) from +8 VDC to +18 VDC (pins 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8 remain unconnected).
Designed for robust electrical protection in vehicle test environments, the LIN signal lines handle a DC operating voltage range from -40 VDC to +40 VDC relative to COM, with absolute maximum ratings extending from -0.3 VDC to +40 VDC on the V SUP line. The cable architecture features galvanically isolated bus power, providing 60 VDC continuous isolation between the LIN port and earth ground (Measurement Category I rated; not intended for connection to MAINS or Measurement Categories II, III, or IV). Power consumption drawn directly from the host device host interface is capped at a maximum of 330 mW.
Housed in an IP40-rated enclosure, the cable assembly measures between 447 mm and 462 mm (17.6 in to 18.2 in) in total length and weighs 70 g (2.5 oz). The DE-SUB connector includes threaded jack screws specified for a tightening torque up to 0.56 N·m (5.0 lb·in) to prevent accidental disconnects during high-vibration testing. Built to handle harsh industrial and automotive conditions (Pollution Degree 2), the TRC-8546 operates across an extended temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C and handles non-condensing relative humidity from 10% to 90% operating (5% to 95% storage), delivering reliable signal conversion for in-vehicle networking and ECU calibration setups.
