Hi, This is Harish Chincholi, going to work on CAN protocols, I am looking for 3 CAN Module Microcontroller, I have found TMS470R1B768 Microcontroller with 3 CAN Module. I want to know if there is Evaluation kit available which supports this Microntroller. If there is any other Microcontroller which has 3 CAN Modules with evaluation kit, suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks & Regards, Harish Chincholi
I need to send messages to 2 PC's continously.. that is having one dedicated transmitter(PC1) which is continously sending messages to remaning 2 PC's.. To all the PC's I like to have evaluation boards interfaced so as to recieve CAN message.
still, are you sure you cannot solve this with 2 CAN networks? I don't see immediately why not, to be honest. Under certain conditions, even a single CAN controller will do.
This definitely sounds like a mistake, unless you are worried about the latencies with more than one transmitter on the cable.
CAN is a bus protocol, so you do not need a large number of individual point-to-point connections unless you need very high tranfer rates.
But in such case: if your microcontroller is not capable of running the bus at a higher baudrate, then it will probably not be fast enough to run multiple point-to-point links at max speed either.
