Function of CAN bus

Bus:

Bus is the term used to describe a data transfer and distribution system.

CAN:

The Controller Area Network is a two-wire bus system. The wires are referred to as bus wires. Data are transferred serially to the connected control units by way of the bus wires.

These control units communicate, i.e. exchange data, by way of the CAN bus.

The two data bus wires form a twisted pair to prevent electromagnetic interference and irradiation. Pay attention to twist spacing.
