J2534 Arduino Here

The question is inevitable: Can the little Arduino talk to the mighty J2534? The first problem our engineer, Alex, discovers is voltage. A car speaks 12V logic (high voltage). The Arduino speaks 5V logic. Connecting them directly would release the magic blue smoke from the Arduino. So, Alex adds a logic level shifter —a tiny circuit that converts 12V down to 5V.

void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); CAN0.begin(MCP_ANY, CAN_500KBPS, MCP_8MHZ); CAN0.setMode(MCP_NORMAL); } j2534 arduino

An Arduino runs a single void loop() .

And that little 16 MHz chip? It turns your garage into a laboratory. The question is inevitable: Can the little Arduino
