Hi Steve,

I agree with Oleg, that the various 8051 CAN controllers will probably be sufficiently different that any FAQ would be derivative-specific and not all that useful (unless of course you were using that particular derivative).

Perhaps of more use would be adding links to point people to CAN information. For example:

Kvasar has a number of white papers relating to CAN and its uses:

http://www.kvaser.com/can/index.htm

ESAcademy has tutorials on CAN, CANopen:

http://www.esacademy.com/

Then again, there's the horse's mouth, Bosch Controller Area Networks home page:

http://www.can.bosch.com/

This last one also has a great links page, as well as the official CAN spec.
