CAN FD Bus Controller

Overview

The Controller Area Network (CAN) controller IP that implements the CAN2.0A, CAN2.0B as well as newer high performance Non ISO CAN-FD protocols. It can be integrated into devices that require CAN connectivity commonly used in automotive and industrial applications.



Key Features

  • ASIL-C, ISO26262 Certified, Automotive Grade
  • Implements the CAN 2.0A and CAN 2.0B protocols
  • Supports ISO CAN-FD-ISO 11898-1:2015 DIS protocols
  • Non-ISO BOSCH CAN-FD Protocol
  • 64 data bytes to multiple megabytes
  • Time-stamping support, compliant to CiA0603 specification
  • TTCAN (ISO 11898-4 level-1)
  • Optimized for AUTOSAR and SAE J1939
  • ISO26262 Certified, CAN2/0/CAN-FD Compliant, and designed for ASIL-B
  • Advanced Features
  • SDB-Software Defined Buffers, to support large external and small internal memories with minimum latency
  • Optimized design for short data frames to create latency advantage(best for CAN-FD)
  • Highly configurable design for data rate, baud-rate, interrupt sources and mix-bit options
  • Low software overhead, future-proof design
  • RAS Features
  • Advanced Error management unit prevents data loss during transmission and prevents message collisions
  • Designed to increase reliability, faster error reporting
  • Separate CRCs for CAN2.0 and CAN-FD
  • Frame or Format error reporting is done on the receiver side in a timely manner
  • Supports debug, system maintenance and system optimization for Last error types, Arbitration lost position, error threshold indicators and others
  • Special listen-only mode for CAN/CAN-FD traffic analysis and automatic bit-rate detection for performance measurement
  • Loopback mode for debug and self-testing during integration and system bring-up
