Embedded Platform For Automotive Applications Supports CAN Bus And CAN FD
The FRC-EP170 and the FRC-EP190 by HMS/IXXAT are universally usable hardware platforms for applications on the test bench or in vehicles. Among others, the devices provide classical CAN Bus and CAN FD interfaces. Expansion slots enable to add other interfaces, including WLAN, GSM, or GPS. Both devices have the same processor and the same operating system, making the new variant completely [...]
PCIe Board Supports Up To Four Isolated CAN Bus Or CAN FD Ports
The PCAN-M.2 by PEAK System allows the connection of classical CAN Bus and CAN FD networks via M.2 interface (PCI Express, PCIe) as supported by modern computers. With its small form factor, the plug-in card is ideal for embedded PCs, single-board computers (SBC), and compact embedded applications. There is a galvanic isolation between the computer and the CAN side, [...]
