Product description Arduino Products Browse the full range of official Arduino products, including Boards, Modules (a smaller form-factor of classic boards), Shields (elements that can be plugged onto a board to give it extra features), and Kits. What makes Arduino products special Continuous attention to User Experience High quality manufacturing & testing process : All products are assembled in Italy, following highest EU standards. End to end security for IoT : From hardware cryptography to cloud Best in class communication technology: We use high quality communication modules Quality standards : We comply with the highest quality standards and pursue modern design approaches Customer support: We take care of our customers and provide several portals for communication and knowledge-sharing BOARD FAMILIES MKR The ideal solution for emerging battery powered IoT edge applications. NANO A tiny footprint, powerful processors and excellent reliability. PRO Arduino’s series of high performance industry-rated boards.

Review: Great Arduino shield except for the reversed silk screen - As the other reviewer mentioned the CAN + and CAN - labels on the board are reversed. Once I switched those my sketch started working right away. Other than that it appears to work very nicely interfacing with my truck.
Review: Careful - Silkscreen is wrong on mine. CAN_L and CAN_H Swapped - Spent a day trying to figure out why none of the sketches worked. Found a post on an Arduino forum mentioning that the silkscreen is wrong. I swapped CAN_L and CAN_H (which are printed wrong) and everything started working. Something to check if you are having trouble getting things to work.

## Features

- Expand Your Arduino MKR Board with CAN Bus Communication: The Arduino MKR CAN Shield [ASX00005] adds powerful Controller Area Network (CAN) communication capabilities to your Arduino MKR board, enabling you to create robust, real-time, and scalable systems for industrial automation, automotive, and IoT projects. Easily interface with CAN devices and networks to send and receive messages, making it perfect for applications that require high-speed, reliable communication.
- High-Speed Data Transmission for Industrial & Automotive Systems: Designed for use with MKR boards, the shield allows for high-speed communication (up to 1 Mbps) via the CAN 2.0A/B protocol, commonly used in automotive and industrial control systems. This makes it ideal for connecting to embedded systems, sensors, actuators, or other CAN-enabled devices, enabling the development of smart systems such as fleet management, industrial monitoring, or vehicle diagnostics.
- Fully Compatible with Arduino MKR Boards: The Arduino MKR CAN Shield is specifically designed to seamlessly integrate with all Arduino MKR series boards, such as the MKR Zero, MKR Wi-Fi 1010, and MKR GSM 1400, providing easy-to-use CAN connectivity via the SPI interface. With this plug-and-play compatibility, you can quickly add CAN capabilities to your existing Arduino projects and start building complex networks.
- Reliable and Scalable for IoT & Embedded Systems: The MKR CAN Shield is engineered for applications requiring robust communication with multiple devices. Whether you're designing industrial IoT systems, connected vehicle networks, or remote monitoring setups, this shield supports the efficient exchange of data over long distances, offering scalability for connecting a large number of devices in a CAN bus network.
- Easy Integration with Arduino IDE & Libraries: The shield is fully supported by the Arduino IDE, with pre-built libraries and examples to simplify development. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced maker, you can quickly start programming the CAN bus communication protocol using familiar Arduino code. The shield also features built-in diagnostics and supports both standard and extended message formats, giving you flexibility and control in your projects.
