Description
M5Stack Atomic CAN Base is an ATOM CAN Bus base for adding isolated CAN communication to ATOM series controllers. Built around the CA-IS3050G CAN transceiver, this isolated CAN communication module includes an isolated DC-DC power design to reduce interference and protect sensitive circuits in vehicle equipment control, industrial field control, and CAN bus communication systems.
The M5Stack Atomic CAN Base supports CAN bus multi-point communication with up to 110 nodes, a signal rate up to 1Mbps, low loop delay, and common-mode voltage from -12V to 12V. For ATOM Matrix, ATOM Lite, ATOMS3, and ATOMS3 Lite projects, this ATOM CAN Bus base is a compact way to build a CAN bus communication interface without designing a separate transceiver board.

Applications
- CAN bus communication between ATOM controllers and CAN field devices.
- Vehicle equipment control prototypes that need a compact CAN interface.
- Industrial field control networks with isolated communication requirements.
- Security system controllers and distributed device monitoring nodes using an ATOM CAN Bus base.
- ATOM-based test tools using an isolated CAN communication module and CA-IS3050G CAN transceiver for robust wiring.
Choose this board when a compact ATOM project needs CAN bus communication, vehicle equipment control, or industrial field control without building a CAN transceiver circuit from scratch. The ATOM CAN Bus base is also useful when an isolated CAN communication module must stay small and easy to mount.

The schematic and model size references are useful when mounting the M5Stack Atomic CAN Base in an enclosure or verifying the HT3.96-4P terminal wiring for CANH, CANL, power, and ground.
For ATOM-based CAN bus communication, the base form factor keeps wiring short and installation clean. The CA-IS3050G CAN transceiver is the key hardware part for the isolated CAN link. The CA-IS3050G CAN transceiver and isolated DC-DC design make the board more suitable for noisy control wiring than a simple non-isolated CAN adapter.
