Interfaces RS485 and CAN
RS485 is an archaicbus but it has some features that distinguish it from the newer interfaces. It allows you to connect, i.a. up to 32 devices on one line up to 1 km with a maximum speed up to 10 MB/sec. The CAN bus is an interface of high reliability, used mainly in the automotive industry.
In the case of using CAN bus with Arduino Uno and Leonardo boards, the functionality of the bus will be limited due to the low performance of microcontrollers of the ATmega. |
