STM32F042G6U CAN - Can't receive frames

[YannDiPadova]

Hello,

I have an issue with the CAN bus on STM32F042G6 µC. 

For the moment I just want to receive Frames from an other controller (STM32G0B1) and it doesn't work at all.

I am using PA11 as Rx Pin and PA12 as Tx Pin Pins.

Here is the configuration part with a 12MHz external clock :

static void MX_CAN_Init(void)
{

  /* USER CODE BEGIN CAN_Init 0 */
  /* USER CODE END CAN_Init 0 */

  /* USER CODE BEGIN CAN_Init 1 */

  /* USER CODE END CAN_Init 1 */
  hcan.Instance = CAN;
  hcan.Init.Prescaler = 16;
  hcan.Init.Mode = CAN_MODE_NORMAL;
  hcan.Init.SyncJumpWidth = CAN_SJW_1TQ;
  hcan.Init.TimeSeg1 = CAN_BS1_1TQ;
  hcan.Init.TimeSeg2 = CAN_BS2_1TQ;
  hcan.Init.TimeTriggeredMode = DISABLE;
  hcan.Init.AutoBusOff = DISABLE;
  hcan.Init.AutoWakeUp = DISABLE;
  hcan.Init.AutoRetransmission = DISABLE;
  hcan.Init.ReceiveFifoLocked = DISABLE;
  hcan.Init.TransmitFifoPriority = DISABLE;
  if (HAL_CAN_Init(&hcan) != HAL_OK)
  {
    Error_Handler();
  }
  /* USER CODE BEGIN CAN_Init 2 */

  /* USER CODE END CAN_Init 2 */

}

 I tried to read the frame sent with this code :

int main(void)
{
  HAL_Init();

  SystemClock_Config();

  MX_GPIO_Init();
  MX_CAN_Init();

  if(HAL_CAN_Start(&hcan) != HAL_OK)
      Error_Handler();

  if (HAL_CAN_ActivateNotification(&hcan, CAN_IT_RX_FIFO0_MSG_PENDING) != HAL_OK)
  {
	Error_Handler();
  }

  while (1)
  {
	  HAL_Delay(500);
  }
}

I don't understand why but it is impossible for me to go in the HAL_CAN_RxFifo0MsgPendingCallback function when a message is received. I checkes the RX Pin with an oscilloscope and the CAN frame is correct on this Pin.

I already found this topic https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/stm32f042g6ux-can-issue/td-p/675078 and follow what was said but nothing works. I don't have any filters, I enabled interrupts for CAN on NVIC menu and in CAN menu. My Rx pin is set to Pull-Up and both my µC have the same exact configuration.

I send a the configuration of my CAN, NVIC and GPIO in .ioc file on attached image.

Do you have any idea why it doesn't work ?

Thank you in advance for your reply,

Hello,

At a first glance:

These are bad timing parameters:

  hcan.Init.TimeSeg1 = CAN_BS1_1TQ;
  hcan.Init.TimeSeg2 = CAN_BS2_1TQ;

You need to increase BS1 and BS2 as much as possible with a sample point at 87%.

I invite you to use this web tool for CAN timing computation: http://www.bittiming.can-wiki.info/.

I also recommend to read these articles:

Hello, I'm using a STM32F042G6U6.
I'm also using STM32CubeIDE with STM32Cube MCU Package for STM32F0 : Version 1.11.5

My other µC used to send the frames is a STM32G0B1CBU6

In attachment, here's my hardware connection. CAN TX is directly connected to PA12 and CAN RX to PA11

Thanks, I will try and come back to you if it works (or if it doesn't)
