Difference between Single-supply and Dual-supply CAN Transceiver

I was about to choose the MCP2558FD CAN Transceiver for a personal project. I found on the datasheet the following diagram: If my understanding is good, I can use it as a dual-supply Transceiver. But ...

Can you use a CAN FD transceiver for low speed (fault tolerant) CAN?

Fault tolerant CAN (ISO11898-3) is terminated differently than high speed CAN (ISO11898-2). Therefore the signal levels for dominant and especially recessive bits differ. Newer CAN FD compatible ...

Controller area network voltages

The CAN bus has CAN-High and CAN-Low lines. Normally, in the recessive state the voltages are each 2.5 V and in the dominant state the CAN-High line goes to 3.5 V and the CAN-Low line goes ...
