I wasn't sure if PIC was perhaps the best topics for the subject. I don't necessarily need code for a PIC controller. Nevertheless, I am new to the CAN "controller area network" standard. I was wondering if anyone knows of a "good" complete book on the subject (hardware and software engineering). Not just 500 pages of technical specifications. Perhaps one with some c/c++ code examples? There are three I have found on www.amazon.com, but I am not sure which one to buy? See Circuit Cellar Ink May & June 1995 issues. May 1995 issue covered CAN network principles; packet format, addressing, arbitration etc, The June issue covered a basic hardware implementation. Mike Schofield's canbus site (http://www.omegas.co.uk/CAN/) is also a good source, seems to have disappeared at the moment...
