Controller Area Network or CAN protocol is a method of communication between various electronic devices like engine management systems, active suspension, ABS, gear control,
lighting control, air conditioning, airbags, central locking etc embedded in an automobile. An idea initiated by Robert Bosch GmbH in 1983 to improve the quality of automobiles thereby
making them more reliable, safe and fuel efficient. With the developments taking place in the electronics and semiconductor industry the mechanical systems in an automobile were being
replaced by more robust electronics system which had an improved performance. New technologies, products and inventions with added or improved functions started to shape a complete
new era for the automobile industry which promised more robust vehicles with use of electronics. The increasing number of electronic devices used communication signals with more
complex interrelations between them. Thereby making the life difficult for automobile engineers when they designed systems wherein one electronic device needs to communicate with
others to operate. Realizing the problem of communication between different electronic modules Robert Bosch came up with this new protocol called CAN which was first released in 1986.
CAN provide a mechanism which is incorporated in the hardware and the software by which different electronic modules can communicate with each other using a common cable.
how the different devices are connected using the CAN protocol.
