TCAN4550EVM: Which program or configuration does SLLC469B include?

Part Number: TCAN4550EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCAN4550-Q1

Hi team, 

Could you tell me what SLLC469B includes as a program source or what we can do with SLLC469B?

I would like to use TCAN4550EVM, SLLC469B, and MCU including SPI controller. I am interested in demo file and this EVM if it allows us to change TCAN4550-Q1 configuration easily and send/receive CAN bus message easily.

Regards,
Ochi

  • Ochi-san,

    The evaluation platform you have suggested is a good starting point to evaluate the TCAN4550-Q1. The starter code (SLLC469B) has functions and structures created to address all registers of the TCAN4550-Q1, as well as easily configure the device for CAN transmission and reception, test modes, configuring the watchdog, among other functions. There is a software user's guide to go along with the starter code that explains how to configure the TCAN4550-Q1 for CAN messaging, this with the starter code are great for initially evaluating the TCAN4550-Q1.

    I'd recommend reading through the software user's guide, then experimenting with the code in your MCU + EVM environment. We also have the BOOSTXL-CANFD-LIN board which includes the TCAN4550-Q1 on a boosterpack that pairs with our MSP430 launchpads, so you have this option as well.

    Regards,
