The Microchip CAN-LIN starter kit is a development platform featuring the digital signal controller (DSC), a device designed for automotive and motor control applications. The board allows users to explore CAN, LIN and SENT serial data formats using the on-board data ports for each protocol. A PICkit on-board (PKOB), USB programmer and debugger is provided along with it enabling simple programming without the need for an additional hardware interface.
