CANopen Headquarter

For people who are interesting in a CANopen architecture on reprap.

People interesting , add you there :

CiA profiles

Interesting profiles for reprap :

  • CiA 402: CANopen device profile for drives and motion control
  • CiA 406: Device profile for encoders (rotating and linear) - product example http://www.vicatronic.fr/fraba.htm
  • CiA 420 series: CANopen profiles for extruder downstream devices

Arduino AtmegaXXX have no CAN

actual design : Atmega serial TX/RX <-- RS232 --> FTDI chip <->[USB connector]<-- USB --> Host PC

with this MCU , with need something like CANSPI like http://www.mikroe.com/en/tools/can2/ So MCP2551 + MCP2515 . So we can agreed it's not cheap ( 5$ of components ).

But Atmel has Atmega with CAN support :

ATmega16M1 ATmega32M1 ATmega64M1 ATmega32C1 ATmega64C1
