3.  Why CAN is reliable?

4.  How many layer it supports?

5.  What is the max speed of CAN?

6.  St. CAN vs Extd. CAN? Can they coexist on a network?

7.  If they can co-exist, which one will have priority; if not, what is the reason?

10. How can we identify a specific sensor in a CAN network?

11. Data Frame vs Remote Frame; Who wins arbitration? Explain why?

12. What is bus termination resistor value for CAN? Do they vary if we put them in each node instead of bus ends?

13. Explain Error Frame? Explain the error states (Like Passive Active and Bus-off)?

27. Data frame vs Remote frame? Who wins when both are available in the network?

28. What is Bit-Encoding?

29. What is bit-stuffing?

30. Why bit stuff happens after 5th bit; why not after or before 4th or 6th bit?

31. What is DLC? Why is it needed?

32. CAN vs LIN?

36. What is security Access? Why do we need it?

37. What is CANCaseXL (if you have used it)? Explain with types?

38. If there are only two nodes on the bus, and both are transmitting same  identifier(exactly the same identifier),who will win the arbitration or what happens?

39. If there is only one node on the bus and it is transmitting messages on the bus continuously, what will happen? Is node will go into the bus-off state or what happens?

41. Is CAN full duplex? what is the significance of Extended frames other than that it can be used for generating more identifiers?
