    The document introduces the CAN protocol, which allows electronic control units (ECUs) in automotive systems to communicate asynchronously over a bus. It describes CAN as using a dual twisted pair cable, supporting message prioritization and error detection, and having a short latency period due to its small frame size of 8 bytes. The document compares CAN's speed and data capacity to other protocols like Flexray and Ethernet that are also used in vehicles and industrial systems.

    Why CAN?
    Automotive Domain needed a way for all ECUs to communicate the data
    among themselves.

    Communication could be started by any node –Asynchronous|Multimaster

    Highly immune to electrical noise – Dual twisted pair

    Short latency period – Small frame size (8bytes data)

    Many more reasons


    Comparing CAN with other protocols
    CAN Flexray Ethernet Most
    Bus Dual twisted pair Dual twisted pair Wire or optical fibre optical fibre
    Speed 1MBPS 10MBPS 100MBPS and above 28.4MBPS
    Data 8 bytes 264 bytes 1500Bytes NA
    Type Asynchronous Synchronous point to point point to point
    Fault tolerance High Medium Low Low
