The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial communications protocol which efficiently supports distributed real-time applications. CAN has high immunity to electrical interference and the ability to self-diagnose and repair data errors. In a CAN network, many short messages are broadcast to the entire network, which provides for data consistency in every node of the system.
The device supports two DCAN modules, referred to as DCAN1 and DCAN2, connecting to the CAN network through external (for the device) transceivers. The DCAN modules support bit rates up to 1 Mbit/s and are compliant to the CAN 2.0B protocol specification
Figure 24-170 shows the DCAN1 module highlights.
