With the introduction of CAN protocol version 1.2, the option to synchronize on edges from dominant to recessive became obsolete. Only edges from recessive to dominant are considered for synchronization. The protocol update to version 2.0 (A and B) had no influence on the oscillator tolerance.
The tolerance range df for an oscillator’s frequency fosc around the nominal frequency fnom with:
depends on the proportions of Phase_Seg1, Phase_Seg2, SJW, and the bit time. The maximum tolerance df is the defined by two conditions (both shall be met):
It has to be considered that SJW may not be larger than the smaller of the phase buffer segments and that the propagation time segment limits that part of the bit time that may be used for the phase buffer segments.
The combination Prop_Seg = 1 and Phase_Seg1 = Phase_Seg2 = SJW = 4 allows the largest possible oscillator tolerance of 1.58%. This combination with a propagation time segment of only 10% of the bit time is not suitable for short bit times; it can be used for bit rates of up to 125 kBit/s (bit time = 8 μs) with a bus length of 40 m.
