4. Products integrating CAN or CNA
4.1 Fields of application
Thanks to major advances in integration, a functional assembly or sub-assembly can now be produced in a single monolithic circuit.
Conversion stage integration is now available on a wide range of products.
Microprocessors, microcontrollers and DSPs naturally integrate interfaces, often multiplexed in AN and NA, with performances such that they cover most common applications from 8 to 12 bits, or even 14 bits, and speeds from a few kHz to a few MHz. We also find very simple products such as temperature sensors, which can then transfer their measurements digitally and also become calibratable, programmable...

Software tools
On the Analog Devices Inc. website, a number of analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog simulation tools and models are available. These range from simple 'on-line' theoretical simulations on their site, to complex models that can be interfaced with tools such as Mathlab, Simulink from The MathWorks and ADS from Agilent.
Time and spectral domains are accessible.

...Standards and norms
There are standards or projects on CANs and NACs, but to my knowledge, their use is never cited by manufacturers.
This is probably due to the dynamism of manufacturers and the specificity of each market segment addressed.
Project DYNAD still has a home page on the Internet, but no changes since 2002. (SMT4-CT98-2214 2002)
