Controller Area Network Market Insights, 2025
The controller area network (CAN) market is a cornerstone of in-vehicle communication and industrial automation, enabling robust, real-time messaging between microcontrollers and embedded devices. Developed by Bosch and widely adopted in automotive electronics, CAN is now used in aerospace, robotics, medical equipment, and building automation systems. CAN bus technology allows multiple ECUs (electronic control units) to communicate without a host computer, making it ideal for systems requiring high reliability and noise immunity. Key industry players like NXP Semiconductors, Microchip Technology, Texas Instruments, and Infineon Technologies offer CAN controllers, transceivers, and software stacks tailored to ISO 11898 standards. With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), ADAS (advanced driver-assistance systems), and autonomous driving, the demand for CAN FD (Flexible Data-rate) and CAN XL is accelerating. Industrial applications are also expanding as Industry 4.0 initiatives push for interconnected, intelligent machinery. Additionally, integration with higher-layer protocols like J1939 and CANopen is enabling interoperability across platforms. As embedded systems grow in complexity and connectivity, the CAN market remains essential for efficient, low-latency communication architectures..
