AVR-CAN Description

AVR-CAN is a simple way to study Atmel's AT90CAN128 microcontroller. Due to its small size (60x55mm) and the inclusion of CAN and RS232, the customer is able to create a bridge between UART and CAN networks. The board can be readily converted into a snap-on prototype or other motherboards where extra circuits are constructed because all AVR pins are available on extension connectors.
