CAN stands for Controller Area Network, the protocol is designed to allow microcontrollers and devices on the network to communicate with each other within a vehicle without a host computer. It is based on the message transmission protocol.
Simple & Low Cost
Communicate via a single CAN system which can reducing error, weight, wiring and costs.
Fully Centralized
CANBus provides one point-of-entry to communicate with all network and enabling central diagnostics.
Extremely Robust
The system is robust towards electric disturbances and electromagnetic interference.
Efficient
CAN messages frames are prioritized by ID where the top priority will get bus access, without causing interruption of other frames.
At the beginning of design, it used multiplexed communication cables in the CANBus technology for vehicles to reduce the consumption of wires. However, CANBUS can be used by other industries lately.
