The CAN bus is an ISO standard bus originally developed for vehicles. It manages the Chassis Electrical System Control

and is responsible for critical activities like engine electrical, and skid control. This system is also used

to provide vehicle diagnostic information for maintenance. A multi-star configuration seems typical of

for noise resistant signaling. Bit rates up to 1 Mbit/s are possible at network lengths below 40 m.

Decreasing the bit rate allows longer network distances (e.g., 500 m at 125 kbit/s).

=== CAN Support in Linux ===

−

The Linux kernel supports CAN with the SocketCAN framework.

+

CAN is supported by Linux device drivers. Mainly two types exist. Character device based drivers and network socket based drivers. The Linux kernel supports CAN with the SocketCAN framework.
