CAN mailbox registers
This chapter describes the registers of the transmit and receive mailboxes. Refer to
Section 32.7.5: Message storage on page 1082
for detailed register mapping.
Transmit and receive mailboxes have the same registers except:
•
The FMI field in the CAN_RDTxR register.
•
A receive mailbox is always write protected.
•
A transmit mailbox is write-enabled only while empty, corresponding TME bit in the
CAN_TSR register set.
There are 3 TX Mailboxes and 2 RX Mailboxes. Each RX Mailbox allows access to a 3 level
depth FIFO, the access being offered only to the oldest received message in the FIFO.
Each mailbox consist of 4 registers.
