Flex CAN between 2 FRDM k64F boards

trialaccount12 — Thu, 28 Feb 2019 05:20:13 GMT

Hi,

I was able to get the demo application of FlexCAN from TWR-K64 board using MCU xpresso as my IDE

(SDK_2.5.0_TWR-K64F120M\boards\twrk64f120m\driver_examples\flexcan).

Further when I tried Internal loop-back program of flexCAN example in FRDM k64F,it was successful but when I run the interrupt mode method where I flashed flexCAN code in two FRDM k64F boards. One node being "a" and other being "b" as per the example , it was not successful.

Connection wise I connected both TX together, Rx together and a common ground. I did not use CAN transreceiver with either of the boards. Am i missing something here?

Is it because I do not have an external CAN transreceiver here?

Saw a previous discussion here , something similar : TWR-K60f120m and FRDM-K64f CAN communication

where it is mentioned I can do without a CAN transreceiver. Both my boards are less than 1m apart and I am using only 2 boards here.

Any directions would be helpful.

Thank you.

IDE: MCU xpresso.

Thanks and Regards

Niranjan

Hi Niranjan,

If you want to communicate via CAN to each other (TWR-K64F120M <--> FRDM-K64F), external CAN transceiver is needed.

There is a CAN transceiver(TJA1050T) on TWR-SER board which can connect with TWR-K64F120M.

But you still need another CAN transceiver for FRDM-K64F.

Best Regards,

Robin

Hi,

I am not using TWR-k64F-120M. I am using two FRDM k64F boards only. I understand I still have to use a CAN transreceiver on either sides.

Thank you.

Hi,

1.I connected on frdm k64F board to TWR-SER CAN transreceiver board(TX and RX of K64F(PTB18,PTB19) to Tx and RX of TWR-SER board as mentioned above)

2.I connected another FRDM k64F board to waveshare SN65HVD230 CAN transreceiver. (TX and RX of K64F(PTB18,PTB19) to Tx and RX of SN65HVD230 CAN)

Finally CAN_H and CAN_L of two transreceivers are connected together.

I downloaded twrk64f120_flexcan_interrupt_transfer demo application from the SDK_2.5.0_TWR-K64F120M\boards\twrk64f120m\driver_examples\flexcan.

(thread reference for SDK source : CAN communication in Rapid IoT board )

As per the documentation in that demo, it should work when there are two nodes a and b. I also followed it, one board being node a and other being node b.

But
while (!txComplete)
{
};
keeps on going for infinite loop and I cannot see any output.

Can you please verify if the demo is working fine? I am not sure why this is happening.

I have attached the circuit pic below:

Please note I tried connecting all grounds together and adding 120 ohm as well.
Nothing helped me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Thanks and Regards

Niranjan

Hi,

Pls ignore my previous post. I got it working. The issue was with Transreceivers. Thank you for your inputs.
