Monitor Canbus traffic.
Windows application for monitoring CANBus is published here.
This tool is designed to be used with this hardware.
So, I made the hardware side with ESP32.

ESP-IDF V4.4/V5.x.
ESP-IDF V5.1 is required when using ESP32C6.

Windows applications can be downloaded from here. -
USB-TTL Converter
ESP32 development board has USB.
This USB connects to Linux and is used for writing the firmware and displaying the LOG.
Need converter to connect with Windows PC.
| Converter | ESP32 | ESP32-S2/S3 | ESP32-C3/C6 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RXD | -- | GPIO4 | GPIO17 | GPIO4 | (*1) |
| TXD | -- | GPIO5 | GPIO18 | GPIO5 | (*1) |
| GND | -- | GND | GND | GND |
(*1) You can change using menuconfig. But it may not work with other GPIOs.

SN65HVD23x CAN-BUS Transceiver
SN65HVD23x series has 230/231/232.
They differ in standby/sleep mode functionality.
Other features are the same. -
Termination resistance
I used 150 ohms.
