According to the UM for both LPC1768/9 and LPC177x:

16.8.1Error handling

Quote:

The Transmit and Receive Error Counters are incriminated for each detected
error

Thankfully, they are not decapitated when the problems go away

and are decremented when operation is error-free.

:D

:o Sorry, NXP_Europe. I was just having a bit of fun with a typo in the user manuals.

incriminated  instead of incremented  :)

Hello jharwood,

use the uart + a terminal program to see what happens. Let the uart (via printf) send out the content of the error counter. The counter will start with 0 and  increments when a CAN-fault is detected. See what happens when the fault is taken away with the counters. Keep sending CAN-messages e.g. ones every second.

If they are found guilty do they end up doing some time in the Hard_Fault handler.:D
