I've been asked to write some software for a 16f877. Basically it has to look at canbus commands coming out of an MCP2515 and produce a byte output to a DAC which will provide a 0 to 10V DC signal.
It all sounds pretty simple except that I have no idea how CAN works and I only have a week to understand it. Does anyone know of a quick CAN primer on the web?

Thanks Steve.
Mind you, looking at the first link I'm beginning to wonder whether I can be bothered. It all looks pretty complicated.
