MQX CAN Driver

[murugan_m]

Hi,

I am new to MQX. Currently i am using MQX 3.8 for the K20 processor. Looking into the CAN driver of MQX, i think it wont support Reception FIFO feature.

My question is suppose there is two active reception mail boxes, which of these two mailboxes are occupied first when a new CAN message is received? Is it depends on mailbox number or what else?

Hi

The FlexCAN hardware module supports features like Rx FIFO or Rx Queue, but they are not enabled in MQX 3.8 and MQX 4.0 FlexCAN driver.

Now in  the latest MQX release is 4.1. we added RX FIFO support for twrk70120m board, please refer to driver code.

C:\Freescale\Freescale_MQX_4_1\mqx\source\io\can\flexcan\fsl_flexcan_driver.c

Regarding who occupied first, according to datasheet, The scan order for mailboxes and Rx FIFO is from the matching element with lowest number to the higher ones

Have a great day,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

When will the Rx FIFO functionality be implemented for the Kinetis MCU's?
