PiCAN FD Zero for Raspberry Pi Zero with 1A SMPS

This PiCAN FD Zero board provide CAN-Bus FD capability for the Raspberry Pi Zero. It uses the Microchip MCP2518FD CAN controller with MCP2562FD CAN transceiver. Connection are made via 4way plug in terminal. CAN_H, CAN_L and +12v supply for the board and the Pi Zero. On board is a 1A SMPS which supplies power to the PiCAN FD and Pi Zero board.

The improved CAN FD extends the length of the data section to up to 64 bytes per frame and a data rate of up to 8 Mbps.

Pi Zero, sensor board and cable not included.
