9.0. CAN module
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a communication standard primarily intended for use in automotive industry. It enables
the microcontroller to communicate to a device installed in cars without using a host PC. In addition, this communication
is widely used in industrial automation. The BIG8051 development system features CAN module used for communication
with CAN devices. To establish connection between this module and the microcontroller, it is necessary to set switches
1 and 2 on the DIP switch SW12 to the ON position.
