Chapter 18: LPC24XX CAN controllers CAN1/2
11. Global acceptance filter
This block provides lookup for received Identifiers (called Acceptance Filtering in CAN
terminology) for all the CAN Controllers. It includes a 512 × 32 (2 kB) RAM in which
software maintains one to five tables of Identifiers. This RAM can contain up to 1024
Standard Identifiers or 512 Extended Identifiers, or a mixture of both types.
12. Acceptance filter modes
The Acceptance Filter can be put into different modes by setting the according AccOff,
AccBP, and eFCAN bits in the Acceptance Filter Mode Register (Section 18–15.1
Acceptance Filter Mode Register (AFMR - 0xE003 C000)). During each mode the
access to the Configuration Register and the ID Look-up table is handled differently.
[1] The whole ID Look-up Table RAM is only word accessible.
[2] During the Operating Mode of the Acceptance Filter the Look-up Table can be accessed only to disable or
enable Messages.
A write access to all section configuration registers is only possible during the Acceptance
Filter Off and Bypass Mode. Read access is allowed in all Acceptance Filter Modes.

12.1 Acceptance filter Off mode

The Acceptance Filter Off Mode is typically used during initialization. During this mode an
unconditional access to all registers and to the Look-up Table RAM is possible. With the
Acceptance Filter Off Mode, CAN messages are not accepted and therefore not stored in
the Receive Buffers of active CAN Controllers.
8 BS1 When 1, the CAN1 controller is currently involved in bus activities (same
as BS in CAN1GSR). 0
9 BS2 When 1, the CAN2 controller is currently involved in bus activities (same
as BS in CAN2GSR). 0
31:10 - Reserved, user software should not write ones to reserved bits. The
value read from a reserved bit is not defined. NA
