CAN Bus Programming With Arduino Uno, Mega 2560
About Controller Area Network (CAN) Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial network technology that was originally designed for the automotive industry, especially for European cars, but has also become a popular bus in industrial automation as well as other applications. The CAN bus is primarily used in embedded systems, and as its name implies, is a network technology that provides [...]
How To Boost The Performance And Industrial Strength Of Your Raspberry Pi
In general, the Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s [...]
Electronic Valve Driver With SAE J1939 Capabilities
HydraForce's ECDR-0506A electronic valve driver is designed to enhance the control of hydraulic proportional valves used for transmission control, vehicle traction control, joystick control, and mobile equipment work functions, such as lifting, lowering, and rotating. The ECDR-0506A has a 32-bit processor and six inputs capable of various signal types; four analog and two digital. It has [...]

Controller Area Network (CAN) Prototyping With Teensy 3.1/3.2
The Teensy is a breadboard-friendly development board that comes with loads of features in a very small package. Each Teensy 3.1 or 3.2 comes pre-flashed with a boot-loader so it can be programmed using the on-board USB connection, i.e. there is no external programmer required. You can program for the Teensy in your favorite program editor using C or you can [...]
mbed LPC1768 Baseboards With CAN Bus (Controller Area Network) Port
This post is part of a series on CAN Bus and SAE J1939 Prototyping with the ARM Cortex M3 processor.I will take a risk by repeating myself over and over again by saying that the mbed LPC1768, as well as the Arduino Due, is utterly useless in its bare form. In order to accomplish any [...]
Arduino Due CAN Bus (Controller Area Network) Interfaces
This post is part of a series on CAN Bus and SAE J1939 Prototyping with the ARM Cortex M3 processor.As it turns out, the Arduino Due, just like a myriad of other embedded systems with CAN interfaces, was developed under the best intentions, but these intentions were focussed on providing a low-price ARM processor solution [...]
