Functional Description
The phase buffer segments are lengthened or shortened temporarily only; at the next bit time, the
segments return to their nominal programmed values.
In these examples, the bit timing is seen from the point of view of the CAN implementation’s state
machine, where the bit time starts and ends at the sample points. The state machine omits Sync_Seg
when synchronizing on an early edge because it cannot subsequently redefine that time quantum of
Phase_Seg2 where the edge occurs to be the Sync_Seg.
Figure 23-16 shows how short dominant noise spikes are filtered by synchronizations. In both examples,
the spike starts at the end of Prop_Seg and has the length of (Prop_Seg + Phase_Seg1).
In the first example, the synchronization jump width is greater than or equal to the phase error of the
spike’s edge from recessive to dominant. Therefore the sample point is shifted after the end of the spike; a
recessive bus level is sampled.
In the second example, SJW is shorter than the phase error, so the sample point cannot be shifted far
enough; the dominant spike is sampled as actual bus level.

23.3.16.1.4 Oscillator Tolerance Range
With the introduction of CAN protocol version 1.2, the option to synchronize on edges from dominant to
recessive became obsolete. Only edges from recessive to dominant are considered for synchronization.
The protocol update to version 2.0 (A and B) had no influence on the oscillator tolerance.

with:
depends on the proportions of Phase_Seg1, Phase_Seg2, SJW, and the bit time. The maximum tolerance
df is the defined by two conditions (both shall be met):
It has to be considered that SJW may not be larger than the smaller of the phase buffer segments and
that the propagation time segment limits that part of the bit time that may be used for the phase buffer
segments.
