Product description: CANBus module CA-IS3050G - expansion unit for M5Stack development modules
CAN transceiverunitin the form of an extension typeUnitto the development modules of theM5Stackfamily. It is a model of isolatedCAN transceiver, which can providedifferential receptionand differentialtransmission. CAN is an international ISO serial communication protocol and belongs to the fieldbus category. The communication distance can reach10 km- the transmission speed is then lower than5 kbps. On the other hand, to keep the maximum transmission speed of1 Mb/s- the communication range should be less than 40 m.
CANBus module CA-IS3050G - Unit extension module for M5Stack developer modules.
CAN bus - what does it mean?
What is CAN bus?
CANbus(Controller Area Network - Can Bus) is a serial bus that allows bidirectional communication between microprocessors. It was created to strengthen and support systems such as ABS or engine control. It is characterized by reliability and extremely high resistance to interference. It is widely used in modern cars, in construction or industrial automation. CAN bus is a multifaceted solution used in more complex projects. CAN is international ISO serial communication protocol.
CAN unit is an isolated transmitting and receiving unit used to realize a complex communication network. It provides differential reception and transmission and can support up to 110 nodes. The signal speed of a given transmission can reach up to 1 Mbps.
