TWAI Network Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
This example demonstrates how to use the TWAI driver to program a target (ESP32, ESP32-S2, ESP32-S3 or ESP32-C3) as a TWAI node, and have the two nodes (Network Master and Network Slave) communicate on a TWAI network. The Listen Only node is optional and acts as a network monitor meaning that it only receives messages and does not influence the bus in any way (i.e. doesn't not acknowledge or send error frames).
Note that concept of master/slave in this example refers to which node initiates and stops the transfer of a stream of data messages.
How to use example
Hardware Required
This example requires at least two targets (e.g., an ESP32 or ESP32-S2) to act as the Network Master and Network Slave. The third target (Listen Only) is optional. Each target must be connected to an external transceiver (e.g., a SN65HVD23X transceiver). The transceivers must then be interconnected to form a TWAI network.
The following diagram illustrates an example network:
---------- ---------- --------------
| Master | | Slave | | Listen Only |
| | | | | |
| TX RX | | TX RX | | TX RX |

Note: If you don't have an external transceiver, you can still run the TWAI Self Test example
Configure the project
For each node in the TWAI network (i.e., Master, Slave, Listen Only)...
- Set the target of the build (where
{IDF_TARGET}
stands for the target chip such asesp32
oresp32s2
). - Then run
menuconfig
to configure the example.
idf.py set-target {IDF_TARGET}
idf.py menuconfig
- Under
Example Configuration
, configure the pin assignments using the optionsTX GPIO Number
andRX GPIO Number
according to how the target was connected to the transceiver. By default,TX GPIO Number
andRX GPIO Number
are set to the following values:- On the ESP32,
TX GPIO Number
andRX GPIO Number
default to21
and22
respectively - On other chips,
TX GPIO Number
andRX GPIO Number
default to0
and2
respectively
- On the ESP32,
Build and Flash
For each node, build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-]
.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

Example Breakdown
The communication between the Network Master and Network Slave execute the following steps over multiple iterations:
- Both master and slave go through install and start their TWAI drivers independently.
- The master repeatedly sends PING messages until it receives a PING_RESP (ping response message) from the slave. The slave will only send a PING_RESP message when it receives a PING message from the master.
- Once the master has received the PING_RESP from the slave, it will send a START_CMD message to the slave.
- Upon receiving the START_CMD message, the slave will start transmitting DATA messages until the master sends a STOP_CMD. The master will send the STOP_CMD after receiving N DATA messages from the slave (N = 50 by default).
- When the slave receives the STOP_CMD, it will confirm that it has stopped by sending a STOP_RESP message to the master.
