Compatible transceiver with ORIN

Would it be possible to connect an MCP2515 Can module to the can pins of the orin?

It could be possible. Customer should handle that.

however, i am the customer, my main issue is that the module itself is an SPI to CAN controller, wouldn’t that override the CAN controller on the dev kit? or should i connect the rx and tx to the HL of the module?

AGX Orin already has two CAN controllers - you only need transceivers.

Your SPI-CAN Controller would give you a third one that is totally independent of the build-in modules. Your SPI-CAN board, however, lacks a third contact on the screw terminals. The vendor decided only to use a two-pole terminal for CAN_H and CAN_L. CAN also requires a GND connection in order to maintain the common range specification.

BTW: MCP2515 is not recommended for new designs by Microchip. You are supposed to use the newer MCP2518FD.
