This is part 3 of my Embedded Systems Explained series!

My name is Fabi and I am an Engineer and Tech Enthusiast from Romania. On my YouTube channel I do thorough reviews of gadgets, showcase my programming projects and show you which cars I am driving.

In this video of my Embedded Systems Explained series I am explaining the CAN Bus (Controller Area Network) in an easy to follow way by discussing the Physical Layer, Data Link Layer and Error detection and confinement mechanisms of the CAN protocol.
