MikroElektronika
All Mikroelektronika’s development systems feature a large number of peripheral
modules expanding microcontroller’s range of application and making the
process of program testing easier. In addition to these modules, it is also
possible to use numerous additional modules linked to the development system
through the I/O port connectors. Some of these additional modules can operate
as stand-alone devices without being connected to the microcontroller.

CAN-SPI Additional Board
The CAN protocol is compliant with ISO standard and is primarily used in serial communication. It was originally intended for
applications in automotive industry, but these days it is commonly used in other industries where a high noise resistance and high
level of reliability at transferring data is required.
CAN network consists of several nodes cabled together (L and H lines). There is one CAN controller in each of these nodes used to
adjust standard digital signals to voltages present in the network. The
CAN-SPI
board features a transciever MCP2551 that provides
necessary signal adjustments and enables these signals to be sent/received at a rate of up 1 Mb/s. In addition, this circuit serves
as a protection against high voltages that might appear in the network (EMI, ESD, noise caused by induction, etc.). The
CAN-SPI
board also features the MCP2515 circuit used as a CAN controller that exchanges data with microcontrollers using a standard Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI).

There are two connectors provided on the board.
A 2x5 connector is used for connection with a
development system the board is connected to,
whereas a screw terminal with contacts marked H
and L enables connection with the network. Since
the board uses SPI interface for communication
with microcontrollers, it may also be used with
microcontrollers which are not supplied with the
built-in CAN module.
DIP switch SW1 is used to select pins on
the microcontroller port to be used for SPI
communication (MISO, MOSI and SCK lines).
