Description
The MCP2510 eases software development and shortens the learning curve for the MCP2510 by providing three PC software templates with different functions that CAN node designers can use as needed. By using one of the templates, the user can read, display, and modify all of the registers in the MCP2510 down to the bit level. Another template can demonstrate basic input/output functionality by allowing messages to be transmitted and received on the CAN bus. Finally, the third template is a demonstration template that, by using a preprogrammed PICmicro® microcontroller (MCU), implements a two node CAN bus that gets the user on the bus in the shortest amount of time and effort.This application note serves as a three-part tutorial for the MCP2510 and discusses the three software templates in detail as well as the important menu items.
