Title: CAN BUS Support on Olimex A13
Post by: Corndork2 on August 05, 2013, 07:40:12 PM
Hey everyone

Is anyone using CAN BUS on any Olimex platform? I know Olimex makes a CAN development board.I've got an A13 with a couple USB to CAN BUS adapters connected. I'm assuming that I will have to build a kernel with support for it. However, if anyone has already done so, would they please be kind enough to share their kernel?

Thanks!

I use the STM32f4 for CanBus.
I connect to the A13 through the SPI.

I have successfully used a Peak USB PCAN on the Olinuxino-wifi
I am trying to get a ET-Mini-CAN spi working.

You need to build a kernel to make changes like this.

I am working on getting an ET-MINI-SPI-CAN - MCP2515 board working off the UEXT connector.
These are available on ebay for about $20 and i have used them with the Raspberry Pi.

I have the MCP2515 recognized and can loading.
But I have issues when I try to use it.
My guess at the moment is that I do not yet have the interrupts working correctly
