Anyone know of a good CAN bus controller chip that uses I2C or is easy to
interface to a stamp?

    Microchip (PIC) makes several excellent devices.

    Microchip makes one bus controller device so far, the rest are "new product"
    status stand-alone CAN devices and I can't seem to find anywhere in the US
    that has them in stock. I did get a hold of the 2510 CAN controller, still
    need to find a CAN transceiver as Microchip doesn't seem to make the CAN bus
    interface chips.

    Philips has quite a nice line of devices for CAN purposes, same problem as
    Microchip though, no one has them in stock. Philips is nice enough to sell
    me a 1000 of the transceivers for 3.50 each directly, too bad I only need
    5..

    I've tried digikey, mouser, arrow. Anyone know of any other place online
    that would sell:

    Philips:
    TJA1053 -- PDIP or SOIC (low-speed CAN bus transceiver)
    TJA1041 -- PDIP or SOIC (high-speed CAN bus transceiver)
    TJA1054A -- PDIP or SOIC (low-speed fault-tolerant CAN bus transceiver)
    SJA1000 -- PDIP (Stand-alone CAN protocol controller)

    Microchip:
    MCP25020 -- PDIP
    MCP25050 -- PDIP

    Thanks for the link, I can really use that. I was unable to find what I
    needed in anything less than 360 quantity, but a useful link all the same.
