Lol CAN tranceivers are made everywhere, they are big silicon, no need for tsmc. iirc even the aged philips fab in nijmegen can make them. https://nl.farnell.com/microchip/mcp2551-i-sn/ic-can-transceiver-hi-speed-smd/dp/9758569?st=mcp2551 69.509 In stock 12.000 meer zal beschikbaar zijn op 15-10-22 15.200 meer zal beschikbaar zijn op 16-12-22 15.200 meer zal beschikbaar zijn op 20-4-23 But try getting an MCU with CAN.... |

Try getting an MCU! Getting it with CAN is just icing on the cake! |

I've used MCU's with CAN peripherals, but they all still require an external transceiver. They handle (some of) the ugly details of the protocol, but they can't drive a bus. (Ralph Kramden, where are you?) Are there MCU's with built in CAN transceivers? |

It was an automotive-specific Freescale chip with of course no datasheet publicly available. This probably requires quite a large amount of die space and I wonder how resilient these are to the common faults, like 28V directly to CAN_H/CAN_L which is something most transceiver chips survive. |

LPC Cortex-m0+ series also had an integrated CAN transceiver. I also see 100k MCP2551 CAN transceivers in stock at Mouser. They work just fine and are a bargain. How you replace CAN with I2C I don't know. Please don't I2C offboard, would'ya? It's an EMC and troubleshooting nightmare. |
