+	 * To talk to CSC using LPC mcu we need a baud rate of 375kHz

+	 * resulting in time quanta frequency of 36MHz / 12 = 3MHz
+	 *
+	 * As the Bit time is combined of 1tq for SYNC_SEG, TS1tq for bit
+	 * segment 1 and TS2tq for bit segment 2:
+	 * BITtq = 1tq + TS1tq + TS2tq
+	 *
+	 * We can choose to use TS1 = 3 and TS2 = 4 getting
+	 * 1tq + 3tq + 4tq = 8tq per bit therefor a bit frequency is
+	 * 3MHZ / 8 = 375kHz
+	 *
+	 * Maximum baud rate of CAN is 1MHz so we can choose to use
+	 * prescaler of 2 resulting in a quanta frequency of 36MHz / 2 = 18Mhz
+	 *
+	 * So we need to devide the frequency by 18. This can be accomplished
+	 * using TS1 = 10 and TS2 = 7 resulting in:
+	 * 1tq + 10tq + 7tq = 18tq
+	 *
+	 * NOTE: Although it is out of spec I managed to have CAN run at 2MBit
+	 * Just decrease the prescaler to 1. It worked for me(tm) (esden)
