One other way to solve this is to:
- use EMI sheilded conductors (at greater expense), or
- use twisted pairs where applicable.
I believe the CAN standard is based on twisted pairs, and they work very well for other ground/signal based configurations.
- abakker 7y agoI had actually used EMI shielded wires - but, I think I must have had a faulty connection from shield to ground. Practically speaking, EMI shielding is hard to get right if you're not a pro. I only recently got an Oscilloscope and was able to measure what the EMI noise actually looks like on a wire. That helped a lot in getting rid of it, too. VFDs are pretty awful - the one in my machine nominally outputs 8amp,220v, 500hz power, containing that is a matter of extreme care. My previous CNC (now sold) really just didn't make any attempt and just counted on physical separation of wires and software filtering of signals.
- sjburt 7y agoCAN uses a differential pair which is the way to go. EMI will drive the pair in the same direction. Also used in USB, RS-485, pci-e, hdmi, etc. You don't really have to twist them but it is best practice.
