Hi Team,

If we want to change the CAN mode from CAN to CAN FD and the speed from 1 Mbps to 5 Mbps, and vice-versa.

Please clarify whether these are possible on MCAN and CAN from R5f.

Thanks and Regards,

Aneesh

Hello Aneesh,

Yes, it is possible to change the CAN mode from CAN to CAN FD and change the bit rate from R5F core.

You can enable or disable the CAN FD mode by updating the following parameter during CAN init in the application.

(C:\ti\mcu_plus_sdk_am62x_08_06_00_18\examples\drivers\mcan\mcan_loopback_interrupt\mcan_loopback_interrupt.c)

For changing the bit rate, you can check the bitrate calculation section in MCU+SDK MCAN documentation(attaching link for reference):

Hi Nihar,

Thanks for replying.

If we want to update the CAN mode from CAN to CAN FD and vice versa at runtime in the application.
