CAN vs LIN

The Local Interconnect Network (LIN) protocol specification provides a low-cost, short-distance, and low-speed network, enabling the implementation of a new level of electronics intelligence in automotive subsystems.
LIN operates under a CAN platform, but it doesn't require the robust data rate and bandwidth performance, or the higher cost, associated with CAN.
Depending on the speed and cost requirements, either CAN or LIN can be implemented.

LIN is a single-master multislave bus that communicates via a single wire, reducing wiring complexity as well as cost. Because this protocol is self-synchronizing, it allows the slave nodes to run from a low-cost RC oscillator.
