Boost Auto, Industrial Product Performance with CAN FD (.PDF Download)

Do you have a project that could be significantly improved with the new CAN FD features? If so, ICs called system basis chips (SBCs) can solve your problem fast. CAN, of course, is the Controller Area Network, a serial data bus that’s widely used in automotive networks and interfaces in industrial equipment.

This incarnation of CAN—CAN FD (flexible data rate)—with its faster data rate and other features markedly enhances the performance of all CAN buses. Here’s a good way to add the CAN-FD interface to your current or next design.
