• 120 Ohm terminator ready
• Four fixing holes, in compliance with Pi HAT standard
• SocketCAN driver, appears as can0 and can1 to application
• Interrupt RX on GPIO25 and GPIO24

Galvanic Isolation

High noise levels on a CAN bus network have the potential to destroy CAN bus transceivers. This noise originates mainly from two sources, ground loops and electrical line surges. Protecting a network against this destructive energy requires the galvanic isolation of the CAN bus system from other local node circuitry.
