Dear Community,
Let me say a few words about a lesser-known communication bus that we recently implemented. Its name is LIN. The LIN bus, together with the CAN bus, is one of the most widely used buses in mobile vehicles.
Key Features
Some advantages of LIN compared to CAN are:
- Cost-Effectiveness
- Reduced Wiring
- Lower Power Consumption

Required AS upgrades
- LIN bus is currently supported on the X90 system (via option board X90IF7L0.05-00).
- The protocol is implemented using the CpLin library.
Use cases/Demos
The “Getting started” section of the CpLin library help provides 2 examples of using the bus:
- Control of a rocker switch
- Control of an ultrasonic parking sensor
QnA
- What version of AS is supported?
- The library can be used in both AS4 and AS6.
- Do I need an extra license?
- No, you do not.
