CAN is used wherever ver two or more micropr

• proces
• cessor
• r units

need d to communicat unicate e with each h other. r.

• Passenger Cars (multiple separate CAN networks)
• Trucks & Buses, Construction Vehicles, Agricultural Vehicles
• Semiconductor Industry (Wafer Handlers, etc.)
• Robotics, Motion Control Applications
• Passenger/Cargo Trains (Brake Control, Wagon Communication)
• Aircrafts (AC, Seat Adjustment)
• Building Technologies (Light & Door Control Systems, Sensors,

etc.)

• Medical Equipment (X-Ray, CAT scanners, etc.)
• Household Utilities (Coffee Machine, Washer, etc.)

• Multi-Master Bus Access
• Message Broadcasting
• Message Priority (No Node IDs)
• Limited Data Length (0…8 bytes)
• 1 Mbit/sec Data Rate
• Excellent Error Detection & Fault Confinement

 Physical and Data Link Layer implemented in

Silicon

 SW Development Engineer is not involved with

writing protocol features

 Low Cost Implementation  Worldwide acceptance (ISO 11898 Standard)

 Bit enco

codin ding CAN uses Non Return to Zero (NRZ) encoding (with bit- stuffing) for data communication on a differential two wire

• bus. The use of NRZ encoding ensures compact messages

with a minimum number of transitions and high resilience to external disturbance.

Main Rules of Bus Arbitration

• Bit wise arbitration across the

arbitration field.

• Dominant Bus Level = 0
• Recessive Bus Level = 1
• Uses Carrier Sense, Multiple Access

with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD)

 Both formats, Standard and Extended, may

co-exist on the same CAN bus.

 The distinction between both formats is

managed by “Identifier Extension Bit (IDE) “

• Node A transmits a message
• Nodes B,C and D receive the message
• Nodes B and D accept the message, Node C declines

• Node A sends a remote frame (request)
• Node B,C and D receive message
• Node D accepts, Nodes B,C declines the request

• Node D sends requested message
• Nodes A,B,C receive the message
• Nodes A,B accept the requested message, Node C declines

Bit Monitoring

Partitioning of CAN Bit Time into Four Segments Sync_Seg: Signal edge is expected here. Any deviation will affect Phase Buffer lengths. Prop_Seg: Compensates for signal propagation times within the network. Phase_Seg1/2: Compensate for signal edge phase errors by adjusting their length.

Phase Errors

 Positive Phase Error

if the receiving bit starts after Sync_Seg then it’s a Positive Phase Error

 Negative Phase Error

if the receiving bit starts before Sync_Seg then it’s a Negative Phase Error

Compensation of Phase Errors

 Compensation of Positive Phase Error - Phase_Seg1 time increases  Compensation of Negative Phase Error - Phase_Seg2 time decreases

 Bit Monitoring

every transmitter automatically monitors and compares the actual bit level on the bus with the level that it transmitted.

 Stuff Error

More than 5 Bits of same polarity outside of “bit-stuffed” segment

 CRC Error

The 16-bit CRC contains the checksum of the preceding application data for error detection with a 15-bit checksum and 1- bit delimiter.

Acknowledgement Error

The ACK field is two bits long and consists of the acknowledge bit and an acknowledge delimiter bit.

Form Error

Violation of fixed format Bit fields. If a dominant bit is detected, an error is generated. The bits checked are the SOF, EOF, ACK delimiter, and the CRC delimiter bits.

Error Probability

In conjunction with all the error checking mechanisms, error probability is 10 to the power -11.

 Guarantees proper network operation even in cases

where malfunctioning nodes produce continuous error condition

 CAN error detection can pinpoint to “perpetrator”  Distinction between temporary and permanent

node failures

 Identification and removal (self-retirement) of

malfunctioning nodes from the bus

CAN Node Error States

Transmit Error

 A transmitting node sends a faulty message  ALL receiving nodes in the network respond with an error

frame

 Through “majority vote” the transmitting node is being

flagged as the “perpetrator”

Receive Error

 A transmitting node send a perfectly good message  Only ONE node in the network responds with an error frame  Through “majority vote” the error reporting node is being

flagged as the “perpetrator”

Basic CAN

 One receive, one transmit message FIFO buffer  Low cost solution  Requires good CPU performance or low CAN data traffic

Full CAN

 Several programmable receive and/or transmit message buffers  Most designs also provide Basic CAN features  Allows low CPU performance or high CAN data traffic

CAN N and the OSI Model del

The CAN specification (ISO11898) discusses only the Physical and Data-Link layers for a CAN network The Data-Link Layer It recognises and understands the format of messages. This layer constructs the messages to be sent to the Physical Layer, and decodes messages received from the Physical Layer . Many applications of CAN require services that are beyond the basic functionality specified by the Data-Link Layer but which may be implemented at the Application Layer. For example, the transmission of data units longer than eight bytes. To meet this need several organisations have developed their

• wn Application Layers.
