Summary:The older generation cars used analogue interface for connecting different ECUs (Engine Control Unit) to monitor parameters like speed, throttle position and engine temperature. The development of the CAN bus protocol resulted in the reduction of wiring harness which was one of the main concerns of the analogue interface. The fault tolerance and error handling capability of CAN is used in suspension systems, ABS, air conditioning, airbags, central locking systems and gear control systems with high transmission speed. Our focus is to develop a custom CAN board that can be used for automotive applications. The CAN board built by us provides a hardware interface that is simple and has a highly abstracted communication protocol. This is due to the fact that the board has all the CAN related functions and abstraction integrated into it. This board eases the development of CAN bus based embedded system applications. It can also kindle the development of an industry that is completely built based on automotive applications
