mbed CAN bitrate change

hello,

my name is Jaesung, and now I use the Nucleo-STM32F767ZI board.

when I use CAN communication, the default bit-rate is fixed at 125kbits

how can I change this?

the mbed library only supports to change the clock frequency of the CAN bus, but I want to change the bit rate of the CAN.

please let me know the method.

Hi there,

from my point of view the frequency of the CAN is same as the bit rate and all nodes on the CAN-BUS must have set same frequency. Higher frequency = higher bit rate.

  • 1000000hz = 1000kbps bit rate
  • 500000hz = 500kbps bit rate
  • 100000hz = 100kbps bit rate

can

/*init*/
            can.reset();
            can.frequency(500000); //must be called every time after reset or startup.
            can.attach(&canread);
/*rest of code*/

BR, Jan
