Controller Area Network
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.

CAN System Engineering: From Theory to Practical Applications
Industrial engineers increasingly make use of microprocessors to monitor and control industrial processes.
This book provides a comprehensive account of how CAN (controller area network) can be designed and applied in a wide
variety of industrial settings. It covers thoroughly: CAN chip implementations, CAN chip programming, CAN hardware design,
CAN system testing and wiring, and CAN applications. The author is a widely recognized expert in this technology with
extensive experience in these techniques with companies ranging from Intel, Motorola, and IBM through to Volkswagen and
Bosch. He brings to bear his expertise by providing examples of industrial networks from industries such as textiles,
elevators, milling machines, excavators, and dental chairs. Beginning with the basic theory of industrial control systems,
the book provides simple examples of networked systems. Then stepwise, readers are shown how to apply CAN systems and how
to test them. As a result, electronic engineers working with industrial control systems will find this an important book to own.

CANopen Implementation: Applications to Industrial Networks
Fieldbus technology has long been recognized as the future in
industrial control applications. This text is intended for those wishing to
embark on implementing CANopen protocols in their products, system integrators
and for those planning to do pre-conformance testing of their products before
going before a certification authority. It is also a reference book for teaching
fieldbuses and distributed control systems. Designed to address the needs of
those at shop floor level, the book describes the application of CAN, the
CANopen protocol and communication technology at the shop floor. In particular
at the "work cell" level and below where the use of decentralized or distributed
control can effect and improve the design and performance of manufacturing
systems. Although this book concentrates on the technology, the reader should
never lose sight of why the technology is used. The book assists and enables
those in the automation product manufacturing arena to make use of the
technology to obtain commercial benefits.
