Hello All,

In general you are right.
Bosch is owner of the protocol rights and several patents for CAN.

For you there is no limitation to design an CAN IP core. But if this core is
used in a commercial product the product owner has to acquire the CAN
protocol license from Bosch. Responsible for that is the legal department at
Bosch. Please refer http://www.can.bosch.com .

Please notice that CAN products should be conformance tested to assure full
CAN protocol compliance.
