CAN 2.0, CAN FD & CAN-XL Bus Controller Implements a CAN bus controller that performs serial communication according to the CAN 2.0, CAN FD, and CAN XL specifications. It supports the original Bosch protocol and ISO specifications as defined in ISO 11898 including time-triggered operation (TTCAN) as specified in ISO 19898-4 and is also optimized to support the popular AUTOSAR and SAE J1939 specifications.
The CAN protocol uses a multi-master bus configuration for the transfer of frames between nodes of the network and manages error handling with no burden on the host processor. The core enables the user to set up economic and reliable links between various components. It appears as a memory-mapped I/O device to the host processor, which accesses the CAN core to control the transmission or reception of frames.
