I like the boiler controller- must add some blue LEDs to my h/w!
What's the CAN bus interface like to use? Is there any good (available
& cheap!) dedicated silicon out there to do the nasties such as
termination and arbitration please?
I suppose two PICs (one just as a bus interface) would be an option,
although some of the later chips seem to have hardware UARTs and the
like.
Sadly, the Kvaser CAN hardware was looking good right until I saw the
$800 price tag for the USB interfaces.
TTFN,
