AM263Px MCU+ SDK: MCAN External Read Write

MCAN External Read Write

# Introduction

This example demonstrates (tested on) the CAN message communication to external PC via PCAN-USB (from PEAK Systems : IPEH-002021) in with the following configuration.

- CAN FD Message Format.
- Message ID Type is Standard, Msg Id 0xC0.
- MCAN is configured in Interrupt Mode.
- MCAN Interrupt Line Number 0.
- Arbitration Bit Rate 1Mbps.
- Data Bit Rate 5Mbps.
- Buffer mode is used for Tx and RX to store message in message RAM.

Instance MCAN1 is set as a Commander in Transmit Mode. Message is transmitted and received back from external PC via PCAN-USB. Once message is transmitted the example will wait for recieving the messages from external PC. Have to manually transmit ten messages from external PC for test to finish. When the received message id and the data matches with the transmitted one, then the example is completed.

# Steps to Run the Example

- Hardware Conectivity, connect the PCAN-USB module to PC from USB and Serial Port to be connected as mentioned in the image below.

MCAN Hardware Connectivity with PCAN USB.

- Software Setup, Download and Install the PCAN-View from https://www.peak-system.com/PCAN-View.242.0.html?&L=1
- Click on CAN in the menu bar and conncet to PCAN-Usb. Set Mode as ISO CAN FD and sampling point in Nominal Bit Rate as 85 percent and Sampling Point in Data Bit Rate as 87.5 percent. Rest as default.
- When data is recieved from MCAN instance, it will be visible as shown in the image below in PCAN-View.
  Data received as shown in PCAN-View.
- After successful reception of data, the data have to be transmitted ten times from PCAN-View for test to end.
- When using CCS projects to build, import the CCS project for the required combination and build it using the CCS project menu (see Using SDK with CCS Projects).
- When using makefiles to build, note the required combination and build using make command (see Using SDK with Makefiles)
- Launch a CCS debug session and run the executable, see CCS Launch, Load and Run
