The core principle behind CAN-BUS is a multi-master, message-based protocol. Unlike traditional serial communication protocols like UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter), SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface), and I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit), CAN-BUS operates as a broadcast network. This means that multiple devices can simultaneously transmit and receive data on the same bus without the need for a centralized controller.
