Hello.
I want to establish communication between two identical microcontrollers (TMS570). For that I plan on using The CAN port of the microcontrollers.
This channel is supposed to be exclusive, which means no other component can interfer with the communication between these two. So now I have a huge doubt. Someone once told me that if you just wat to communicate between those two microcontrollers then you don't need an external transceiver, you simply connect the pins accordingly, program the device and it will work perfectly.
The problem is that I'm not really sure about this, I really think that there needs to be a CAN transceiver between those microcontrollers.
Does anyone know anything about this?
