CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK CHIP
The 82526 Communication Controller is a highly integrated VLSI device which implements the CAN (Controller Area Network) Protocol. Included on the chip are an Interface Management Processor (IMP), Bit Stream Processor (BSP), Bus Timing Logic (BTL), Transceiver Control Logic (TCL)), Processor Interface Unit (PIU), Error Management Logic (EML), Clock Generator and a pseudo Dual Port RAM (RPRAM). These hardware modules implement all necessary features of a high performance serial communication protocol.
