Preliminary
Description
Baud Rate Prescalar
The value by which the oscillator frequency is divided for generating the
bit time quanta. The bit time is built up from a multiple of this quantum.
0x00-0x03F: The actual interpretation by the hardware of this value is
such that one more than the value programmed here is used.
BRP defines the number of CAN clock periods that make up 1 bit time
quanta, so the reset value is 2 bit time quanta (1+1).
The CANBRPE register can be used to further divide the bit time.
