<p>A CAN microcontroller that supports a plurality of message objects, including a processor core that runs CAN applications, a CAN/CAL module that processes incoming messages, and a data memory space. The data memory space includes a plurality of message buffers associated with respective ones of the message objects, and a dedicated RAM memory space that contains a plurality of memory-mapped registers associated with each of the message objects. The plurality of memory-mapped registers associated with each message object correspond to respective command/control fields for facilitating configuration and setup of that message object. Each of the memory-mapped registers is mapped to a respective storage location within the dedicated RAM memory space. In one embodiment, the dedicated RAM memory space encompasses a plurality of separate RAM modules, each RAM module being dedicated to a respective one of the command/control fields. The memory-mapped registers corresponding to a respective one of the command/control fields are located in respective, designated addressable memory storage locations within the separate RAM module dedicated to that command/control field, with a different addressable memory storage location being designated for each respective one of the message objects. In one particular implementation, all of the memory-mapped registers corresponding to a respective one of the command/control fields are located in a respective one of the separate RAM modules dedicated to that command/control field.</p> |
