CAN Bus Connection Module with MCP2551, IDC10 (CAN-1 Board)

Description

CAN Bus Connection Module with MCP2551, IDC10 (CAN-1 Board)
MIKROE-67
The CAN-1 Board allows you to connect a CAN network to microcontrollers that have CAN support. It has an MCP2551 CAN transceiver on board.
The board has a female IDC10 connector to plug it into a development system. The DIP switch allows you to set which pins are used for RX/TX, and the user manual explains the settings required for specific MikroElektronika development systems.
Note:
The board is designed to use 5V power supply only. Be sure to use voltage translators on communication lines when connecting it to 3.3V systems.
CAN Bus Add-on Module Features
Implements ISO-11898 standard physical layer requirements
Supports 1 Mb/s operation
Low-current standby operation
Detection of ground fault on TXD input
An unpowered node or brown-out event will not disturb the CAN bus
Up to 112 nodes can be connected
Protection against damage due to short-circuit conditions
Ready-to-use examples save development time
Supported in all mikroElektronika compilers
Compatible Development Systems
The CAN-1 Board can be used on any system whose microcontroller has CAN support. The interface is via a female IDC10 connector. Development systems by mikroElektronika have matching 2×5-pin headers already installed. To use it in your own system, you may want to pick up
IDC10 box headers
that you can solder onto your PCB, or an
EasyTEST
board to wire it up easily.
