This paper presents the development (hardware and soft-
ware), implementation and testing of a real-time CAN Simu-
lator used in the automotive electronics industry.
The CAN simulator is designed to be able to configure
information messages, transmit and receive information frames
from a pre-tensioned belt ECU to a test program used within
the Autoliv company The following is the operating block
diagram of the CAN Simulator regarding the exchange of
information with the belt ECU [Fig. 1].
