11.2 LIN
The blue PiraT Mini is able to record data compliant to the LIN specification V1.3, V2.0 and
V2.1. The data logger does not actively appear as a bus member. Sending LIN messages is
currently not supported.

Transmission Rate
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 20000 Baud
Transmitter
TJA1021
Status
Parity BITS, format Check for Header,
Checksum for Header and Payload
Terminating resistor
30 kOhm

11.2.1
LIN data blocks and time stamps
Each LIN message receives a time stamp, which marks the end of the message. If the data log-
ger receives LIN data without a valid header, it creates blocks containing the erroneous data.
The maximum block size is 10 bytes. A block is also concluded after a timeout, which is three
times the transmission time of a LIN character.
11.2.2
LIN transceiver
The blue PiraT Mini uses the LIN transceiver TJA1021 by NXP (former Philips Semiconductor).
Supported baud rates are in the range from 1200 to 20000 Baud. Automatic baud rate detection
is currently not supported. The LIN interface is configured as a slave device with a terminating
resistor of 30 kΩ.
