Local Interconnect Network (LIN) is a broadcasting, Single Master, and Multi Slave (up to 16) communication protocol designed to support those features where CAN is not required.
LIN Master Slave Controller
Overview
Benefits
- LIN is a single wire-based interface, it reduces the cost and complexity of implementation.
- LIN is the best-suited and best alternative to CAN for applications that do not need high Bandwidth and that are of low speed.
- LIN is self-synchronized and therefore no need for external oscillators.
