13th international CAN Conference

In 2012, CiA celebrated its 25th anniversary during the 13th iCC. It took place in the Hambach castle, Germany. This location stands for the cradle of German democracy. The hot topic of this conference was the introduction of the CAN FD data link layer.

ESD, Ixxat Automation, Janz Tec, Telemotive, and Vector Informatik sponsored the 13th iCC.
