Overview
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 this bus with a primary bus line that branches into sub bus lines at its extremities then attaches to multiple device nodes. Differential voltage is applied over twisted pair at 1.5 to 2.5V and 2.5 to 3.5V 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). (Jeremiah J. Flerchinger Source) Controllers supporting CAN FD, an enhanced CAN version with frames up to 64 byte and bit rates up to 4 Mbit/s, will be available in the second half of 2014. A can4linux version supportig CAN FD on a IFI CAN is ready to be used.
Although developed as car communication network CAN is used in many other areas, industrial, medical, maritime laboratory and more. Most often with a CAN based higher layer protocol like CANopen on top of it.

CAN Support in Linux
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.
- SocketCAN Documentation
- mailing list for Linux Kernel CAN development
- linux-can git repository
- Berlios Project Page (obsolete)
One of the character based drivers is can4linux.
SocketCAN Supported Protocols
- RAW: send & receive raw CAN frames
- BCM: Broadcast manager, offload repetitive work to the Linux kernel
- ISOTP ...
- SAE J1939
SocketCAN Supported Controllers
- Microchip MCP251x
- Atmel AT91 SoCs
- ESD 331 CAN Cards
- NXP (Philips) SJA1000
- Freescale MPC52xx SoCs
- Bosch CC770
- Intel AN82527
- TIs SoCs
- Serial/network devices utilizing ASCII protocol (slcan driver)
