Embedded Networking hands-on class: Controller Area Network, CAN bus, CANbus

Embedded Networking with CAN

A full-day hands-on training class about the Controller Area Network (also known as CAN bus or CANbus)

The hands-on part implements several examples for 8051 microcontrollers and uses the Vector CANalyzer for monitoring and stimulating the CAN bus

This full-day class gives engineers a fast hands-on introduction into CAN.

Upcoming Classes

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge about the design and implementation of embedded systems is beneficial.

Hands-On Part

For the hands-on part, we provide computers with all the required software, the Vector CANalyzer and a microcontroller starter kit with an 8051 derivative.

We recommend that two students share one computer, because that maximizes class efficiency as typographical errors and other simple mistakes are less likely to happen in a team environment.

Certification

Certificates are issued to all students participating in the training class.

Schedule, Location, Pricing
