SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – RTS/CTS Session Test Program
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Just for kicks, I extended the previously used Arduino sketch to simulate a fully functional RTS/CTS session (yet again, the code is highly tailored to the previous RTS/CTS session). Based on that sketch, I could simulate all error scenarios on the receiver’s side.This [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Conclusion
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. With all previous programming examples installed and explained, you should now have a pretty good grip on programming your own SAE J1939 application with the Arduino Uno and/or the Mega 2560.Yet, there are still numerous, possible scenarios for J1939 applications and all [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – ARD1939 Sample Application
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. The typical SAE J1939 ECU application not only involves the protocol stack but also a good amount of input and/or output processing. This could involve reading sensors and sending the result in form of a PGN or reading a PGN and setting [...]

Mastering Internet of Things starts by presenting IoT fundamentals and the smart city. You will learn the important technologies and protocols that are used for the Internet of Things, their features, [...]
Arm Cortex-M33 Micro-Controller With CAN FD For Secured IoT (Internet-of-Things)
STMicroelectronics introduced their cyber-protection to power-conscious connected devices with the STM32L5 micro-controller (MCU) series featuring the Arm Cortex-M33 core, which also provides a CAN FD interface.Building on the Cortex-M33, boosting protection for small devices by integrating ARM's Trustzone hardware-based security, the STM32L5-series MCUs add further enhancements. They include software isolation, secure boot, key storage, and hardware [...]
PiCAN2 CAN Bus HAT for Raspberry Pi - Getting Access To The 40-pin GPIO Header
In the past, we had received a number of inquiries regarding the PiCAN2's 40-pin GPIO header, which is designed in a way that it prohibits access to unused GPIOs. Besides the power supply, the PiCAN2 board (one CAN port) itself uses only 6 signals, while the remaining signals cannot be accessed when the board is [...]
