Using the MCP2515 CAN Developer's Kit

2003 Microchip Technology 1 MAN873 INTRODUCTIONThe MCP2515 eases software development andshortens the learning curve for the MCP2515 byproviding three PC software templates with differentfunctions that CAN node designers can use as Using one of the templates, the user can read,display, and modify all of the registers in the MCP2515down to the bit level. Another template candemonstrate basic input/output functionality byallowing messages to be transmitted and received onthe CAN bus. Finally, the third template is ademonstration template that, by Using apreprogrammed PICmicro microcontroller (MCU),implements a two node CAN bus that gets the user onthe bus in the shortest amount of time and application note serves as a three-part tutorial forthe MCP2515 and discusses the three softwaretemplates in detail as well as the important menu 1 is a block diagram of the MCP2515 board.

AN873 DS00873A-page 2 2003 Microchip Technology Inc. OVERVIEW OF THE SYSTEM SOFTWARE There are three software templates that are used to control one or both of the nodes on the board.
