Scalable Controller Area Network (S12MSCANV3)
18.1 Introduction
NXP’s scalable controller area network (S12MSCANV3) definition is based on the MSCAN12 definition,
which is the specific implementation of the MSCAN concept targeted for the S12, S12X and S12Z
microcontroller families.
The module is a communication controller implementing the CAN 2.0A/B protocol as defined in the
Bosch specification dated September 1991. For users to fully understand the MSCAN specification, it is
recommended that the Bosch specification be read first to familiarize the reader with the terms and
concepts contained within this document.
Though not exclusively intended for automotive applications, CAN protocol is designed to meet the
specific requirements of a vehicle serial data bus: real-time processing, reliable operation in the EMI
environment of a vehicle, cost-effectiveness, and required bandwidth.
MSCAN uses an advanced buffer arrangement resulting in predictable real-time behavior and simplified
application software.
