Compact, Low-Cost Handheld Device For Basic CAN Bus And CAN FD Network Diagnostics

Posted by Industry News on

PEAK PCAN-MiniDiag FD - Compact Diagnostic Device for CAN and CAN FD Buses

PEAK-System, a company specializing in standard CAN Bus and improved CAN FD, announced their PCAN-MiniDiag FD.The PCAN-MiniDiag FD is a compact, low-cost handheld device for the basic diagnosis and checking of CAN Bus and CAN FD networks. Service technicians and developers can quickly access vehicle networks, machines, or industrial equipment with an unknown configuration. 

The nominal bit rate for CAN and, in addition, the data bit rate for CAN FD is determined automatically using bit timing measurement. Furthermore, the device has measuring functions for the termination, busload, and voltage levels at the CAN connector.

The new CAN FD standard (CAN with Flexible Data rate) comes with higher bandwidth for data transfer. The maximum of 64 data bytes per CAN FD frame (instead of 8) can be transmitted with bit rates up to 10 Mbit/s. CAN FD is downward-compatible to the CAN 2.0 A/B standard, thus CAN FD nodes can be used in existing CAN networks.
