Increas­ing­ly the rela­tion­ship between sys­tem buses and embed­ded soft­ware exe­cu­tion is becom­ing more rel­e­vant dur­ing develop­ment, and sys­tem inte­gra­tion and test­ing. To bridge this divide, the CAN/CAN-FD and LIN bus net­work data can be cap­tured and dis­played in par­al­lel to the micro­con­troller code exe­cu­tion domain. For CAN/CAN-FD, injec­tion of mes­sages is pro­vid­ed. The CAN/LIN Add-on mod­ule can be sim­ply attached to an FNet port on iC7max or iC5700 Blue­Box to visu­al­ize the delays across sys­tem soft­ware.

• Cor­re­la­tion of bus data to the appli­ca­tion behav­ior (pro­gram and data trace) over time. Time stamp is set in the Blue­Box.
• End-to-end response time of a send to receive mes­sage
• Trig­ger on CAN: Start a trace record­ing when a ded­i­cat­ed CAN mes­sage (frame) appears on the bus and ana­lyze the appli­ca­tion behav­ior from that point in time
• Cor­re­late CAN mes­sages and trace record­ings to digital/analog IO or SPI sig­nals (addi­tion­al ADIO AOM need­ed)
• Inject CAN mes­sages
• Auto­mate test­ing with the use of script­ing
