Key Features
- Expands the existing MCU with the reliable and robust CAN connectivity option, support for both CAN 2.0B and CAN FD frames, high speed CAN communication up to 5 Mbps, integrated DE-9 connector, oscillator selection, and more
- Based on the MCP2517FD - external CAN FD controller with an SPI interface from Microchip ATA6563 - high-speed CAN transceiver from Microchip
- Can be used for developing a wide range of automotive diagnostic applications, even on MCUs that don’t support CAN interface
- mikroBUS: SPI, GPIO and PWM Interfaces
The MCP2517FD Click Board™ is a complete CAN solution that carries the MCP2517FD CAN FD controller and ATA6563 high-speed CAN transceiver from Microchip and a DB9 9-pin connector.
The MCP2517FD Click Board™ Click Board™ requires both 3.3V and 5V power supply. It communicates with the target microcontroller through the SPI interface, with additional functionality provided by the following pins on the MikroBUS socket: AN, PWM, INT, TX and RX.

Note: For selecting the interface voltage level, use the onboard jumper, and choose between the 3.3V and 5V. For more information, see the Jumpers and Settings table below.
MCP2517FD Features
The MCP2517FD is a cost-effective and small-footprint CAN FD controller that can be easily connected to a microcontroller over an SPI interface. Therefore, a CAN FD channel can be easily added to a microcontroller that is either lacking a CAN FD peripheral, or that doesn't have enough CAN FD channels.
The MCP2517FD supports both, CAN frames in the Classical format (CAN2.0B) and CAN Flexible Data Rate (CAN FD) format.
ATA6563 CAN TRANSCEIVER FEATURES
ATA6563 is a high-speed CAN transceiver that provides an interface between a controller area network (CAN) protocol controller and the physical two-wire CAN bus.
The transceiver is designed for high-speed ( up to 5Mbit/s ) CAN applications in the automotive industry, providing differential transmit and receive capability.
It offers improved electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electrostatic discharge (ESD) performance.
CONNECTOR FEATURES
This is a standard DB 9-pin male connector.
