Product description: CAN Bus Module - TJA1051T/3 - Adafruit 5708
This module, based on the TJA1051T/3 chip, allows you to connect a microcontroller to any expansion module that communicates via the CAN bus . The module is powered by 3.3V/5V and also works with 12V and 24V boards. It features low electromagnetic emissions (EME) and high electromagnetic immunity (EMI). It also includes a voltage converter that allows it to work with 3.3V boards without the need for an additional power supply.

What is the CAN bus?
CAN stands for Controller Area Network and is a multi-master serial bus for bidirectional data transfer. It provides half-duplex communication at transmission speeds of up to 1 Mbit/s. Its reliability makes the CAN bus widely used in automotive vehicles, agricultural equipment, and industrial automation.
Description of the board pins
- H / L - CAN bus transmission lines
- GND - system ground
- VCC - input voltage in the range from 3 V to 5 V
- RX - serial interface receiver communication line (CAN input)
- TX - serial interface transmitter communication line (CAN output)
- SLNT - enables the TJA1051/3 system to enter sleep mode
- CANH - CAN bus transmission line (high)
- CANL - CAN bus transmission line (low)
