Turbo CAN Bus, SAE J1939 Board For Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, Arduino, and Android Systems
As part of our embedded hardware and software development for CAN (Controller Area Network) based vehicle protocols, the first prototype of the jCOM.CAN.USB, a CAN/J1939 to USB/UART gateway board for embedded solutions, has passed the performance and quality tests successfully, and we are now ready to start production. The main focus of this board is the [...]
CAN Bus Programming With Arduino Uno, Mega 2560
About Controller Area Network (CAN) Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial network technology that was originally designed for the automotive industry, especially for European cars, but has also become a popular bus in industrial automation as well as other applications. The CAN bus is primarily used in embedded systems, and as its name implies, is a network technology that provides [...]
BeagleBone Green, Well Suited For IoT Applications, Boots Linux In Under 10 Seconds
The BeagleBoard is a low-power open-source hardware single-board computer produced by Texas Instruments in association with Digi-Key and Newark element14. The BeagleBoard was also designed with open source software development in mind, and as a way of demonstrating the Texas Instrument's OMAP3530 system-on-a-chip. The board was developed by a small team of engineers as an [...]
Connectivity Solution For SAE J1939 Deutsch Applications
Turck has released an over-molded connectivity solution for J1939 Deutsch applications. The solution is designed for mobile equipment as well as oil and gas applications, where environmental factors such as shock, vibration, cold temperatures, moisture, and oils can affect performance. Thanks to its over-molded design, extremelife jacketing, IP67 rating, and cold weather performance, Turck’s over-molded J1939 Deutsch connectors provide [...]
