Industrial And Military-Strength Galvanically Isolated Classical CAN And CAN FD Breakout Boards

We at Copperhill Technologies are currently developing a new product, the  JCOM.CAN.QUAD, a galvanically isolated four-channel CAN-to-USB gateway board. More precisely, two of the interfaces support Classical CAN, while another two operate as CAN FD (Flexible Data Rate) ports. For the sake of maximum flexibility, we decided to use a sandwich design where separate CAN boards [...]
