| CAN: The Network That Never Stops Evolving Courts 32-bit Applications
Backed by the research and standardsmaking
muscle of the global automobile
industry, the control-area-network
(CAN) bus has evolved far beyond the
concepts embodied in the first protocol
nearly 20 years ago.
Automobiles have become a design
challenge for engineers ... read the article |

| An Ethernet-ready System Solution for Industrial Communication
The bus of the future for industrial
applications is possibly Ethernet. If so,
the question is not whether Industrial
Ethernet will prevail, but rather how
soon Ethernet-based systems will
replace other bus systems. The
functions that must be provided by
the semiconductor components in all
