The Intel(R) Platform Controller Hub EG20T Controller Area Network (CAN) Controller - 8818 is a hardware component typically found in embedded systems or specialized Intel-based platforms. The CAN (Controller Area Network) controller is used in applications requiring robust, real-time communication in environments like automotive, industrial, and embedded systems. It allows devices in these systems to communicate with each other over a network, such as sensors, actuators, or other embedded components.
This specific Intel EG20T Platform Controller Hub is designed to provide connectivity, and the CAN controller part facilitates communication between devices in a network, typically within a constrained, reliable, and high-speed system.
