<p>CAN interface ICs are designed for communication between devices. CAN stands for Controller Area Network and it is a serial communication which is popular for automotive applications.</p><p>CAN bus is a specialised internal communication network that connects <a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/semiconductors/processors-microcontrollers/microcontrollers/" target="_self">microcontrollers</a> and devices so that they can communicate with each other via message-based protocols without the need for a computer host. CAN interface ICs are an important part of the communications network in vehicles, known as the 'bus'. Each CAN device on the bus is called a node. Each node is configured to receive data from the sensor equipment and transmit it to a PC.</p><h2>Types of CAN interface IC</h2><ul><li><strong>CAN Controllers</strong> sit between the CAN bus and the chosen application. CAN controllers take data from the application and convert it into suitable data for the CAN bus.</li><li><strong>CAN Transceivers</strong> detect and drive data to and from the bus. The controller will use single-ended logic. So the transceiver is there to convert this into a differential signal for the CAN bus.</li></ul><h2>What are CAN interface ICs used for?</h2><p>CAN interfaces facilitate communication amongst devices in a small range network and are commonly used in automotive applications. These devices are also typical in the medical instrument industry, factory automation mechanisms and to support semiconductor-based machinery in a variety of sectors.</p><h2>Integrated vs. Standalone</h2><p>CAN interface ICs come in two types:</p><p>Integrated, meaning there is more than one controller on the CAN bus (network system). The integrated controller requires less space and facilitates faster and more reliable communication to the microcontroller</p><p>Standalone, meaning there is a single controller on the CAN bus (network system). An independent CAN controller functions as a memory chip allowing flexibility of data transmission.</p>
