LIN Bus Solutions Scalability and Integration for the Low-Cost Communications Network Local Interconnect Network (LIN) LIN/J2602 is a communication standard designed to address low-cost networking within vehicles. LIN enables a cost-effective communication network for lower speed switch, smart sensor and actuator applications within the vehicle where the bandwidth and versatility of CAN is not required. LIN can be implemented on any PIC microcontroller (MCU) with a UART or USART interface.
CAN Bus Solutions Taking Communication and Connectivity in Deeply-Embedded Designs to the Next Level Controller Area Network (CAN) CAN is a serial communication protocol used extensively for high-speed embedded applications where noise immunity and robustness is necessary. CAN protocol supports speeds up to 1 Mbps and is highly fault-tolerant, making it ideal for safety-critical applications.
Additional Connectivity Protocols Providing Comprehensive System Solutions Other Connectivity Options While the most sophisticated protocols and interfaces tend to garner a significant amount of attention, a number of simpler connectivity options are and will remain the embedded interconnects of choice for many deeply-embedded applications.
