First idea - The idea of CAN was first conceived by engineers at Robert Bosch Gmbh in Germany in the early 1980s. Early focus - develop a communication system between a number of ECUs (electronic control units). New standard - none of the communication protocols at that time met the specific requirements for speed and reliability so the engineers developed their own standard.
1983 : First CANBUS project at Bosch 1986 : CAN protocol introduced 1987 : First CAN controller chips sold 1991 : CAN 2.0A specification published 1992 : Mercedes-Benz used CAN network 1993 : ISO 11898 standard 1995 : ISO 11898 amendment
Physical medium two wires terminated at both ends by resistors. Differential signal - better noise immunity. Benefits: Reduced weight, Reduced cost Fewer wires = Increased reliability

Up to 1 Mbit/sec. Common baud rates: 1 MHz, 500 KHz and 125 KHz All nodes same baud rate Max length:120 to 15000 (rate dependent)
Each node receiver & transmitter A sender of information transmits to all devices on the bus All nodes read message, then decide if it is relevant to them All nodes verify reception was error-free All nodes acknowledge reception

Each message has an ID, Data and overhead. Data 8 bytes max Overhead start, end, CRC, ACK

Arbitration needed when multiple nodes try to transmit at the same time Only one transmitter is allowed to transmit at a time. A node waits for bus to become idle Nodes with more important messages continue transmitting
CAN bus

Message importance is encoded in message ID. Lower value = More important As a node transmits each bit, it verifies that it sees the same bit value on the bus that it transmitted. A 0 on the bus wins over a 1 on the bus. Losing node stops transmitting, winner continues.

A 0 (low voltage) on the bus by 1 node wins over a 1 (high voltage) on the bus.
