TMS320F28388D: MCAN access from CPU1

Part Number: TMS320F28388D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

I was checking latest TMS320F28388D datasheet, where on page 4, Figure 3-1 the MCAN (CAN-FD) peripheral is connected to CPU1.CLA and CPU1.DMA, but the Table8-9 on page 255 does not show that the MCAN peripheral can be accessed from C28 CPU1.

I would like to know if there is any easy way how the MCAN peripheral can be accessed from CPU1 without using M4 core.

  • Hi,

    Due to Thanksgiving Holiday, the subject matter expert is out of office. We will get back to you next week.

  • Hi Petr,

    The colors of the arrows in figure 3-1 may be misleading due to subtle differences in shading, but yes, CAN-FD is accessible from C28 CPU1.  You can start with several software examples in C2000Ware under driverlib/f2838x/examples/c28x/mcan for how to access mcan using the C28 core.  Latest C2000Ware release is C2000Ware_4_02_00_00.
