RE: can bus

I gave you a star for posing a question about something I don't know anything about.  I searched the web and now I know.  Suggest you do the same.

RE: can bus

Why?  I can tell you simply that is an effective method of transmitting data (differentially) at relatively high data rates (1MBit/sec) in very harsh enviornments (i.e. automotive).  If you need to know exactly how it works, it might be easier to tell us the problem that you are trying to solve.
