Bandwidth Considerations

Bus bandwidth needs to be considered when data is transmitted over CAN. The ECU has Transmit rates from 10Hz up to 1000Hz. 

Example 1:

The following uses the Predefined 1 Tx  DATA set. This uses 10 sequential addresses and it total transmits the value of 40 parameters.  CAN Baud rate at 1Mbps

Tx RateNumber of MessagesBandwidth Used (%)Available Bandwidth for other devices
10Hz101.2%98.8%
50Hz106.1%93.9%
100Hz1012.2%87.8%
500Hz1061%39%
1000Hz10Cannot be achieved

Example 2:

The following uses the Custom 1 Tx  DATA set. This uses 5 sequential addresses and it total transmits the value of 20 parameters.  CAN Baud rate at 1Mbps
