• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

2.1.2 Clock Generator

The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard uses the DSC1121, which is a Microchip
MEMS clock generator, as the default clock source into the microcontroller. The
DSC1121 on this board has been programmed to generate an output frequency of
8 MHz and is offered in a small 2.5 x 2.0 mm package.

2.1.3 Switches

Five push button switches provide the following functions:

• S1: Active-low switch

• S2: Active-low switch

• S3: Active-low switch

• S4: Active-low switch

• RST (S5): Active-low MCLR
When Idle, the switches are pulled high; when pressed, they are grounded.

2.2 POWER SOURCES

The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard must be powered using a +5V DC regulated
power source. The user has two options to connect the power:

• USB connector (J14), or

• Test loops: 5VIN and GND1.

The jumper (JP1) is used to select between the power sources, see Table 2-1.

TABLE 2-1: POWER SOURCE JUMPERS

Index Description

JP1 • Powers-up the MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard from USB or an external

5V power supply between 5VIN and GND1.

• Short-circuit pins 2 and 3 (top and middle) to select VBUS, or pins 1 and 2
(middle and bottom) to select the external power supply.

2.4 CONNECTING THE BOARD

Figure 2-2 illustrates an example CAN FD network. The MCP2517FD click Board is

plugged into the MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard. A CAN FD tool from K2L is
connected to the MCP2517FD click Board using twisted pair wires.

The demonstration board is powered using a Mini-USB cable. Alternatively, the board
can be powered using a 5V power supply connected between 5VIN and GND1.

There are two terminations on the CAN bus:

• Two 60 Ohm resistors in series on the MCP2517FD click Board.

• A 120 Ohm termination resistor at the connector of the K2L OptoLyzer
FD tool.

2.5 OPERATION

The user can write firmware for the MCU in order to create a custom CAN FD node.
Check the MCP2517FD product page for the firmware API and for code examples.

The RST button ca n be used to reset the MCU. Switches S1-S4 ca n be used t o trigger
the transmission of CAN FD messages to the CAN FD tool. LEDs D1-D8 can be
controlled by the CAN F D tool using CAN FD messages.

All I/O pins of the MCP2517FD are easily accessible through pin headers.
The differential CAN bus signals, CAN_H and CAN_L, are accessible on the

MCP2517FD click Board, or on the DB9 connector: CAN_H on pin 7, and CAN_L on
pin 2.

Chapter 3. Software

3.1 INTRODUCTION

The MCP251xFD CAN FD Motherboard can be used with MPLAB X Integrated
Development Environment (IDE), which is available free on Microchip’s website at

www.microchip.com. This software is used for programming and debugging the

PIC32MX470F512H on the MCP251xFD CAN FD Motherboard.

3.2 SOFTWARE OVERVIEW

The PICkit™ 3 through MPLAB X, is a low-voltage in-circuit debugger, as well as a
low-voltage programmer, for the PIC32MX470F512H. In-circuit debugging allows the
user to run, examine and modify programs for the microcontroller embedded in the
board hardware. This facilitates the debugging of firmware and hardware concurrently.
Use the in-circuit debugger with MPLAB X IDE to run, stop and single-step through
programs; breakpoints can be set and the microcontroller can be reset. When the
microcontroller stops, the contents of the registers are available for examination and
modification.
