The PiCAN3 board with SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) provides CAN-Bus capabilities for the Raspberry Pi 4. It uses the Microchip MCP2515 CAN controller with MCP2551 CAN transceiver. Connection is made via DB9 or the onboard 3-way screw terminal.

The Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) allows connecting an input voltage range of 6 VDC to 20 VDC suitable for industrial and automotive applications and environments. The SMPS will power the Raspberry Pi plus PICAN3.

There is an easy-to-install SocketCAN driver, and programming can be accomplished in C or Python.

The onboard PCF8523 is a CMOS Real-Time Clock (RTC) and calendar chip optimized for low power consumption. Data is transferred serially via the I²C-bus with a maximum data rate of 1000 kbit/s. Alarm and timer functions are accessible with the opportunity to produce a wake-up signal on an interrupt pin. An offset register allows fine-tuning of the clock. The PCF8523 has a backup battery switch-over circuit, which detects power failures and automatically switches to the battery supply when a power failure occurs.

BMW E8x K-CAN BUS to GUI development using PiCan3 and Raspberry Pi. 00:44

Development of a GUI for BMW E8x Models CAN BUS interpretation. Taking CAN BUS data in via a PiCAN3 module on my raspberry pi. Then displaying that data on a web gui front end. Eventually I would like to make a CIC retrofit to my car. Still more work to be done but this is a preview. I run the PiCAN3 in loopback mode and then send CAN data into the bus which then is picked up by my python script and interpreted.
