Information Bus: Description and Operation
Multiplex Integrated Control System Description
Body Controller Area Network (B-CAN) and Fast Controller Area Network (F-CAN)
The body controller area network (B-CAN) and the fast controller area network (F-CAN) share information between multiple electronic control units
(ECUs). B-CAN communication moves at a slower speed (125 kbps) for convenience related items and for other functions. F-CAN information moves at
a faster speed (500 kbps) for "real time" functions such as fuel and emissions data.
Gateway Function
The gauge control module acts as a gateway to allow both systems to share information. The gauge control module translates and relays the information
from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN.
