Proteus does not always include the MCP2515 in its default library. You can find useful models and project files here: mcp2515 proteus library link
⚠️ Avoid "auto-installer" websites. Many contain outdated libraries (pre-2015) that crash Proteus 8.9 or newer. Always download raw .LIB and .IDX files.
Once you have downloaded the .LIB and .IDX files (and optionally .MDF ), follow these steps: : The schematic component file that allows you

If you fail to find a working link, consider that simulating CAN bus in Proteus is notoriously buggy. For simple projects, physical hardware (a $3 MCP2515 module connected to an Arduino) is often faster than debugging library installation errors. You can find useful models and project files
For the firmware side of your simulation, you can use popular Arduino libraries such as the autowp MCP2515 Library or the coryjfowler MCP_CAN Library .

Hopefully, this guide helps you get the MCP2515 into your Proteus environment. Given that a ready-made library can be difficult to locate, which of the methods above would you like to explore first?
The CAN transceiver (usually available in default Proteus libraries) required to convert digital signals to differential CAN signals.
