Frequently Asked Questions
Which MKR boards work with the MKR CAN Shield?
The shield is fully compatible with Arduino MKR Zero, MKR 1000 WiFi, MKR WiFi 1010, MKR FOX 1200, MKR WAN 1300, and MKR WAN 1310. Simply stack it onto the headers of any of these boards.
Do I need an external power supply for the CAN bus?
No external supply is required. The onboard TPS54232 buck converter derives the necessary 5V for the shield from your MKR board’s power line. Just ensure your MKR board is powered via USB or VIN.
Which software libraries should I use?
We recommend the official Arduino CAN library for socket-style CAN operations combined with the “mcp2515” driver library available in the Library Manager. These provide example sketches for both sending and receiving CAN frames.
