You are correct. The LPC11C22 and LPC11C24 parts include an on-chip, high- speed CAN transceiver. I assume it is a dual die implementation. Heinz

Correct, but most do not have bus drivers. (Electrical buffers, not software.) R.W.

using a CAN module internally connected to the controllers peripheral bus is always a better solution compared with a CAN controller connected via SPI. Hundreds of controllers with integrated CAN are available by different manufacturers: http://www.can-wiki.info/doku.php?id=controllers:main You should take care to have a migration path to CAN-FD.

To echo what Roberto said: LPC11Cxx has an excellent CAN interface with built-in drivers (drivers in ROM) - quite easy to use. You'll want to get yourself a CAN book and study; CAN is quite different from other communication schemes. IAR also makes an LPC11 starter/devel board which I used to get up to speed, before I designed a couple boards using LPC11C22. Provided free CodeRed studio (now owned by NXP) was quite good as well. Hope that helps! Best Regards, Dave

It may be worth getting a Komodo USB CAN interface and using that a bit to learn. They have a library that allows programming against the device, or you can just use their GUI for capture. I have one connected to a Cubie board in this way. I'm sure a RasPi or Beaglebone Black would work as well, or you can just connect it to a Windows or Linux workstation/laptop/what have you.

Figure 4.2 on page 25 here: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/21801G.pdf has some detail.

The LPC11C24 has a built-in CAN controller and CAN bus drivers. Embedded Artists had a demo board with this chip, may be others. R.W.

Greetings!

I have just join this group as it might be a good place to have some chat
about NXP projects. 
I want to make OBD2 scanner using one of the LPC chips. Now, I dont have
any experience with CAN protocol, but I read about it and kind of
understand how it works. What is not clear is if filtering of the messages
is done by MCU or CAN controller ?
I found most of implementations is around MCP2515 CAN controller and
MCP2551 transceiver. 
I dont really know if theres a benefit of using LPC CAN controller over
MCP2515, or just stick with any LPC and use the SPI for that? As MCP have
2 or 3 I/O buffers, is that enough for fast communication ? 
What I want to achieve is to read some of the sensors from the car CAN and
show it on a small TFT display. 
Suggestions? Should I use LPC with CAN or stick with MCP ? Implications
are that i need to make new PCB for LPC with CAN, and for MCP i can just
order a board and connect it to SPI.
