Description
Description
The MCP2515 eases software development and shortens the learning curve for the MCP2515 providing three PC software templates with different functions that CAN node designers can use as needed. By using one of the templates, the user can read, display, and modify all of the registers in the MCP2515 down to the bit level. Another template can demonstrate basic input/output functionality allowing messages to be transmitted and received the CAN bus. Finally, the third template is demonstration template that, by using preprogrammed PICmicro® microcontroller (MCU), implements a two node CAN bus that gets the user ? the bus? in the shortest amount of time and effort.
