The origins of the CAN bus protocol (Controller Area Network)<\/strong> extend far back in the past \u2013 even before automation and digital transformation became an issue. Bosch already laid the foundation for the bus system in 1986 to enable electronic communication between the upcoming control units, sensors and actuators which were increasingly used in cars at that time. Manufacturers started to include active suspension systems, gear and light control, central door locking and ABS. To enable interaction between different electronic units, to exchange data and to perform tasks correctly, a new and easy-to-use bus system was needed. This was when CAN came into existence which, right from the start, was considered to be a simple, secure and efficient solution.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/blog.microcontrol.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Icons_Web_25-Jahre.jpg” alt=”Icon 25″ title_text=”Icons_Web_25-years” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”4″ custom_margin=”-1px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”27px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ef7c00″ header_3_font_size=”24px” custom_margin=”||13px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Required: easy, reliable, secure<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”4″ custom_margin=”-1px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”27px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_text_color=”#ef7c00″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Requirements were clearly stipulated: the bus system had to work reliably in vehicles in any kind of condition imaginable. Simple wiring, high security in data transmission and a rugged and clear structure were relevant features at the time – features which, in the meantime have also become important in many other kinds of application: the CAN protocol facilitates simple wiring as the electronic devices can communicate through a single multiplex line which connects each node in the network. The multiplex architecture enables combination and transmission of signals in the entire network through a single line, so that each electronic module gets the data from sensors and actuators at the right time.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/blog.microcontrol.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dienstleistungen_homepage_680px.jpg” alt=”Board and data processor” title_text=”Developments CAN bus” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”4″ min_height=”57.5px” custom_margin=”-1px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”27px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ef7c00″ header_3_font_size=”24px” custom_margin=”||13px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Standardization as motor<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”4″ custom_margin=”-1px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”27px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_text_color=”#ef7c00″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The CAN protocol was standardized by the International Standards Organization (ISO) in 1993.

To facilitate migration to FD, MicroControl systems are equipped with the possibility to switch from CANopen to CANopen FD. “As technological leader and CiA member we are always at the pulse of time”, says MicroControl head of sales, Frank Wielp\u00fctz. “Our modules have been equipped with the possibility to switch from CANopen to CANopen FD for years.

With its high transfer rates the CAN XL closes the gap between CAN and Ethernet, but will continue to feature small, economic and fail-safe modules.
