Hello community!

What are the simplest ST uC with CAN feature?

Yours suggestions will be welcome!

Many thanks and Regards!

    Hello @zpedro and welcome to the community,

    That depends on what do you mean by "the simplest ST uC".

    First, there are two CAN flavors: bxCAN peripheral (CAN2.0) and FDCAN peripheral (CANFD).

    Second, STM32F0, STM32F1, STM32F2, STM32F3, STM32F4, STM32F7 families have bxCAN peripheral

    while STM32G4, STM32H7, STM32H5 etc .. have FDCAN peripheral.

    So if you mean by simple not a very complex MCU I can suggest STM32F0 family based on Cortex-M0:

    You can use STM32CUbeMx or STM32Finder tools to select the suitable MCU for your application:

    Hope that helps.
