Can-Bus system uses two wires (Bus) for data

communication between ECUs.
 C.A.N.(Controller Area Network)
Can-Bus system uses two twisted wires (Bus) for data
communication between ECUs. Can High and Can Low.

The message is made up of 0s and 1s generated by the voltage difference between

Can H and Can L.
Can H operates between 2.5 - 3.5volts.
Can L operates between 2.5 - 1.5volts.
0 dominant bit.= 2 volt
1 recessive bit.= 0 volt
Example: Can H = 3.5v, Can L =1.5v, Difference = 2v or 0 dominant.
 INTRODUCTION
CAN : Controller Area Network (ISO11898)
Many signals are transmitted through a pair of twisted cables.
In JA627 MY2004 CAN is used between TCM, ECM and BCM.
 Swift CAN

CAN: Controller Area Network

-Serial communication (a twisted pair cable for multiple signals)

-High speed data transmission
-Simultaneous communication among multiple controllers
-Automatic communication error detection logic
-Noise resistant
CAN BUS

The Bus is the twisted wires

that connects the different
controllers together and where
data is transferred between
them.
Twists in the wires a :
must be tighter than
100mm(4in)

Do not connect terminals of

the CAN line using a bypass
wire (1). Otherwise, the CAN
line may be influenced by the
electric noise.
