I2C
Nice PickDevelopers should learn I2C when working with embedded systems, IoT devices, or hardware projects that require communication between multiple integrated circuits on a single board, as it simplifies wiring and reduces pin count compared to parallel interfaces
Pros
- +It is ideal for scenarios where moderate data rates (typically up to 3
- +Related to: spi, uart
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
CAN Bus

Pros
- +g
- +Related to: embedded-systems, automotive-engineering
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use I2C if: You want it is ideal for scenarios where moderate data rates (typically up to 3 and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use CAN Bus if: You prioritize g over what I2C offers.
