This document discusses the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus, which allows microcontrollers and devices in vehicles to communicate. It describes CAN's implementation as a message-based serial bus protocol that operates in the physical and data link layers. The key components of CAN architecture and message frames are outlined, along with common applications like automobiles, advantages like high throughput, and limitations such as potential unfair access.

3. CAN
bus is a vehicle bus standard designed to allow
microcontroller and devices to communicate with
each other in vehicle.
It
is a message based protocol.
It
is present in both physical and data link layer of
OSI layers.
It
is a multi-master serial bus .

Unfair access - node with a high priority can "hog" the
network.
Poor latency for low priority nodes.

CAN is ideally suited in applications requiring a large number
of short messages with high reliability in rugged operating
environments. Because CAN is message based and not address
based, it is especially well suited when data is needed by more
than one location and system-wide data consistency is
mandatory.
