Programming the Bit Timing 1 (CAN_BTIME1) Register
Bit timing register 1 (Figure 7-8) controls the time at which the bus is sampled and the number
of samples taken. In single-sample mode, the bus is sampled once and the value of that sample is
considered valid. In three-sample mode, the bus is sampled three times and the value of the ma-
jority of those samples is considered valid. Single-sample mode may achieve a faster transmis-
sion rate, but it is more susceptible to errors caused by noise on the CAN bus. Three-sample mode
is less susceptible to noise-related errors, but it may be slower. If you specify three-sample mode,
the hardware adds two time quanta to the TSEG1 value to allow time for two additional samples
during t
of samples taken. In single-sample mode, the bus is sampled once and the value of that sample is

Program the CAN bit timing 1 (CAN_BTIME1) register to define the sample time and the sample
mode. The CAN controller samples the bus during the last one (in single-sample mode) or three (in
three-sample mode) time quanta of t

For correct operation according to the CAN protocol, the total bit time must be at least 8 time
quanta, so the sum of the programmed values of TSEG1 and TSEG2 must be at least 5. (The
