Hey All,

I know we had some talk on serial decoding recently and in somewhat continuation of that I wanted to share some cool resources I found this weekend.

I may be taking some CAN FD (CAN Flexible Data Rate) Pico traces this week and serial decoding those traces to ensure that communication is taking place and I needed to school myself on it and wanted to share the following resources:

Some of this is way over my head, but I like to see this stuff anyways so I can have a better understanding of the data on the serial decoder

I think I am able to ascertain the difference between CAN and CAN FD, but I still yet need to dive in to CAN XL (which Pico also has a serial decoder for on the scope).

If anyone has additional resources, would like to see. If I end of taking traces I will share.

Thank you Sam. Lexus now has a new model that uses CAN FD for scan tool communication.  I will study the links you provided.

Looking back in the AN forum history, It looks like Pico has had a CAN FD decoder for 10 years or more. And, Logic brought up the topic in 2014.
