Educational Guides To Atmel AVR Microcontroller Programming
The AVR Microcontroller and Embedded Systems Using Assembly and C: Using Arduino Uno and Atmel StudioThe AVR microcontroller from Atmel (now Microchip) is one of the most widely used 8-bit microcontrollers. Arduino Uno is based on the AVR microcontroller; it is inexpensive and publicly available around the world. In this book, the authors use a [...]
High-Performance Rugged Edge Computer With CAN Bus Interface For In-Vehicle Applications
Onlogic introduced its Karbon 700 rugged computer series to serve applications such as a data-logger, network video recorder, or edge device in demanding industrial, in-vehicle, or remote installations. The system also comes with a CAN Bus interface.Ensuring reliable operation under extreme conditions, the product underwent tests regarding MIL-STD-810G standards to resist damage from continued vibration and [...]
PCI Express Mini Card With 2 CAN Bus Or 2 CAN FD Interfaces
The CAN-PCIeMini/402-2 board by esd electronics is an add-in PCI Express Full-Mini Card that utilizes two electrically isolated CAN Bus High-Speed interfaces. The PCI Express Mini Card CAN-PCIeMini/402-2-FD comes with two CAN FD interfaces.The optional adapter CAN-PCIeMini/402-DSUB9 comes with a DSUB9 connector, selectable onboard CAN termination, and an adapter cable.The independent CAN Bus nets are managed by [...]
SAE J1939 Monitor Software - Setting Up PGN Simulation Such As Engine Coolant Temperature
In this post, I will explain the setup of SAE J1939 PGN simulation with our JCOM1939 Monitor software, and I will use the Engine Coolant Temperature as a randomly chosen example. Let me emphasize the point that you can set up any PGN with our software. However, please be also aware that you will need [...]
Dual Isolated CAN FD Interface Board For Raspberry Pi, Arduino, And Other Embedded Systems
The 2-Channel CAN Bus interface board by Copperhill Technologies was primarily designed with the Raspberry Pi in mind but is, nevertheless, also suitable for other embedded systems such as the Arduino family of CPU boards. The board supports two CAN FD (CAN with Flexible Data-Rate) ports with a data rate of up to 8Mbps. It features [...]
Industrial IoT 4G LTE Router & Gateway With Ethernet, RS232, RS485 Serial Ports Plus Digital I/O
The ICR-3200 LTE gateway by Advantech represents an excellent solution to connect IP or serial devices to a cellular network, allowing industrial M2M and IoT applications that comprise of kiosks, industrial PCs, HMIs, traffic controllers, meters, UPS systems, and more.Supporting LTE Cat.4 upload speeds of up to 50 Mbps and download speeds of up to 150 Mbps, the [...]
CAN Bus And SAE J1939 Prototyping With The Arduino Due ARM Cortex M3 Processor
Whenever it comes to building rapid prototypes for new CAN Bus or SAE J1939 applications, my first choice is regularly the Arduino Due, a microcontroller board based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 CPU.In general, the Arduino platform couples an easy-to-use programming environment (IDE) with a vast number of hardware extensions (shields). While I do appreciate programming [...]
Industrial IoT Gateway With CAN Bus Port Compatible With Windows 10 IoT And Linux Operating Systems
Axiomtek, a design and manufacturing company in the industrial computer and embedded field, announced its ICO320-83C, a fanless DIN-rail embedded system with four RJ-45 Gigabit PoE ports for facility monitoring systems, IP video surveillance, Access Point, and intercoms.It represents an industrial IoT gateway that comes with IP40-rated heavy-duty aluminum extrusion and steel enclosure for application [...]
Raspberry Pi PICAN2 Functionality Test With Two PICAN2 HATs
The following is yet another post on testing the PICAN2 - CAN Bus Interface for the Raspberry Pi, however, with a different approach. In this case, we utilize two identical PICAN2 boards and connect them per the CAN Bus (CAN_H to CAN_H, CAN_L to CAN_L) as shown in the image above.In the past, we have [...]
SAE J1939 to Bluetooth Gateway - Android Code (Java) Sample Code
Just as a fair warning upfront, the code that I am referring to in this post is not a finished sample code, but it demonstrates how to receive and decode SAE J1939 message frames (PGNs) from our JCOM Bluetooth device. Please be aware that we provide this code as a courtesy to experienced Android programmers (which [...]
