Can I get the timestamp of all bits?

Post by yushanhsu » Wed 26. Feb 2025, 09:14

Does the timestamp on PCAN refer to the time when the hardware receives SOF? Is there a way for me to get the timestamp of all bits in the frame transmitted on the bus?

Timestamps are either generated by the driver, (PCI based devices) or on hardware (Usb based devices),
the timestamp is always generated upon reception of the full frame.

We do not suppor timestamps on bit-level.

Thank you for your response. We are using the Peak CAN USB Pro, and I would like to confirm one point: When you mention that the timestamp is generated upon reception of the full frame, does this refer to the time when the EOF (End of Frame) is received?

Hello,

That would be accurate, yes.
