Abstract :
This work presents a case study concerning a controller-area-network (CAN) bus transceiver behavioral model. Three different model architectures have been developed in order to effectively tackle the speed-accuracy-convergence trade-off in CAN bus transceivers networks simulations. The model was implemented using the VHDL-AMS language. The model behavior has been fully validated. Extensive simulation results are reported: they demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model.
