Hi all,

I am a relative newbie, and am designing a series of products based on the
PIC16F87X and possibly the PIC16F628 that will all need to communicate with
each other (multi Master) over distances of up to say 50m.

Is I2C a suitable choice? Can I run the PICs as slow as 4MHz, or would I
need to go higher than this? I plan to send simple commands and
acknowledgements only.

Also what is a "Controller Area Network"

Sorry if these are silly questions.

Regards,

Sean
