Excellent Shield for CAN Communications

this shield is great for adding CAN communication capabilities to your computer projects. It is easy to use and works well with most single board computers .The versatility of this shield makes it an excellent addition to any engineer or hobbyist's collection. The only drawback is that it may take some time to get used to if you are new to using CAN communication protocols in your projects. Overall, this is an amazing product that delivers what it promises..

Pros
  • Enables simple communication between an Arduino board and a CAN (Controller Area Network) bus.
Cons
  • Requires an additional purchase of an Arduino board for use.

Attention - my silkscreen is wrong. CAN_L and CAN_H swapped

Spent a day trying to figure out why none of the sketches worked. Found a post on the Arduino forum that mentions the screen printing is wrong. I swapped CAN_L and CAN_H (which doesn't print correctly) and it worked. Something to check if you're having trouble getting it to work.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Appearance
