I am trying to connect a Arduino MEGA 2560 to a MCP2515 can controller with a TJA1050 transceiver and SPI interface. The board with the can controller and transceiver has a 8.000 mhz crystal. The problem is when calling mcp2515.setBitrate(CAN_125KBPS, MCP_8MHZ);
the return value is 1. Tested this on a Arduino UNO where it works. Tried calling setBitrate() with different parameters too but it seems that it fail every time.
EDIT:
I have managed to make it work by chaging the wiring in the following way:
Name----Mega2560---MCP2515
INT-------2----------INT
MISO------50---------SO
MOSI------51---------SI
SCK-------52---------SCK
SS--------53---------CS
VCC-------5V---------VCC
GND-------GND--------GND
Now i can call successfully mcp2515.setBitrate(CAN_125KBPS, MCP_8MHZ);
