CAN bit timming vs RS232

CAN bit timming vs RS232

2006-01-03 by r_goncalves2000

Hello,

This is my first message to this group but I read this group
with atention for some time.

I'm using an Olimex LPC-E2294 board with a cristal of 14.746.000Hz.
This gives perfect baud rate for RS232 but I can find a CAN bit timing
with no error for some usual bit timings like 125K, 250K, etc.
If I go to a 15MHz cristal I have perfect bit timimings in CAN but I
have a RS232 error of about 1.67%.

Is there a way to have no error in both RS232 and CAN baud rates?
If not what's the best choice for the cristal value?
I want to have both RS232 and CAN.


Thank you.
Rui

Hello Rui,

the boards TinyArm has a cristal of 12MHz. I think that work fine but
I not still tried the CAN. 

Good work

Hello Rui,

I 'am using the LPC2129 an there ist the same "problem".

You can fix it with the CAN setup by chosing a time quanta
with a low error in the CANBTR.

For 14,7456 MHz and 125k CAN Buadrate my settings for CANBTR are:

#define   CALC_BRP_43      0x0000002A
#define   CALC_SJW_1        0x00000000
#define   CALC_TSEG1_8    0x00070000
#define   CALC_TSEG2_2    0x00100000

#define   CANBitrate125k      CALC_BRP_43 | CALC_SJW_1 | CALC_TSEG1_8 | 
CALC_TSEG2_2

Error:  -0,24%

You can find additional infos in:

Best regards,
Martin

With en error less then 1% there should be no problem for CAN.

Re: CAN bit timming vs RS232

Hello guys and thank you very much for your fast answers.

I'm thinking in doing this.
 Use a 15MHz cristal.
 Use PLL to set cclk to 60MHz.
 Set VPDIV to define pclk to 60Mhz.

With this settings I have 0% error in defining the CAN baud rate 
and a maximum of 1.72% error in RS-232 baud rate at 115.200.
At 19.200 I get 0.16% error. In this group I found that RS323
error should be less than 3% so I think I'm OK.

I think it's better to have no error in CAN than in RS-232.
In CAN if the cable is to long I get errors due to the baud 
rate setting and errors do to the size of the cable.

Am I right? Any comments?

Martin:
Did you test your CAN settings over a large cable (500m)?
Did you test the CAN comunication between your ARM and another
equipment or with 2 ARM with the same settings?

Regards.
Rui

If you are withing 1% for the CAN bit speed you will be alright. For 
cable length adjust the sample point instead. Use 87.5% for instance to 
be able to use the length specified for CANOpen

I think so too.

Not yet, only a few meters.

At the moment I communicate with a CAN to USB Dongle and it worked perfect.
