Originally developed for use in automotive applications, CAN (Controller-Area-Network) has become the de-facto communication standard in vehicles and mobile systems, as well as in any kind of distributed embedded system.
With this book, the necessary basics for understanding, implementation and application of CAN-based data communication systems shall be provided. Therefore, a basic introduction into data communication in cars, machines and on the factory floor is given. A main focus of the book is the introductory description of the physical and data link layer of the CAN protocol. In addition, a description of the general architecture of CAN protocol controllers is provided together with the most important CAN chips available on the market. Another focus of the book is the introduction to the most important CAN-based higher layer protocols, especially CANopen and DeviceNet. Finally, general aspects for the design and implementation of CAN-based networks as well as hard- and software components and development tools are described.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Konrad Etschberger teaches real-time systems and industrial communication at the University of Applied Sciences in Weingarten, Germany. He has been involved in the design, development and application of CAN technology in industrial and automotive applications since the first CAN chip became available. In 1994 he published his first book about CAN, in 2000 a second, completely revised and extended edition followed.
In 1987 he founded stzp, a technology transfer company which was one of the first CAN pioneers. In 1980 the activities of stzp were transferred to IXXAT Automation GmbH, Weingarten, a leading provider of CAN- and TCP/IP-based products, system designs and solutions.
