Hi I want to bypass the CAN transceiver TJA 1040 and connect the Tx of one CAN controller to Rx of another and vice versa. The CAN does not seem to work. Can anyone suggest why this is so? Many thanks
The reason it didn't work is the very same one that CAN transceivers exist in the first place: CAN is designed to be used with a quite strictly defined line discipline, which isn't compatible with that of your micro's CAN_RX and CAN_TX pins. In other words: please try to understand a technology, before you try to hack your ways around it.
