Dear TI e2e,
I'd like to use the GPIO feature of the CAN port to connect a sensor. However, the ref. manual is a bit missleading.
According to the CAN RX IO Control Register Field Description (Pg 842), Func is 0 after reset, meaning CAN_RX is in GPIO mode.
But once the Init bit in the CAN control register is reset, it is Forced to '1' if Init bit of CAN control register is reset, meaning CAN_RX pin is in functional mode (as an output to transmit CAN data). Hence it would drive the output of the sensor.
I'd be glad if you could clarify or if I'm missinterpreting the Ref. Guide?
Best regards,
Uli
