Free-of-Charge OBD-II Viewer Windows Software and Application Programming Interface (API)
PEAK Systems has announced the revised version 1.2 of its free-of-charge Windows software PCAN-OBD-2, an OBD-II Viewer based on their OBD-2-API (Application Programming Interface). The software allows engineers to develop applications based on the OBD-II (Onboard Diagnostics) communication standard. The Windows software and the API work with all PEAK Systems CAN Bus interfaces. OBD-II is a standard specifying [...]
System-On-Module (SOM) Dedicated To Commercial Vehicles Supports Two CAN FD Interfaces
Microsys Electronics announced its Miriac MPX‑LX2160A, a System-On-Module (SOM) dedicated to commercial vehicles and mobile systems. The module supports two CAN FD interfaces.The module is based on the NXP LX2160A processor and offers 16 Arm Cortex-A72 cores, which are twice as many as its predecessors. The configuration meets the requirements of (artificial intelligence) edge server applications, autonomous [...]
Edge AI Platform Supporting Eight GMSL Automotive Cameras, 10G Ethernet, Isolated CAN Bus Port
The NRU-110V computer system by NEOUSYS Technology (Taiwan) supports eight automotive cameras, 10G Ethernet, and one isolated CAN Bus (Classical CAN) interface for in-vehicle communication. The device integrates the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier SOM (System-On-Module), including the Volta GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and the Carmel CPU. Using the 10G Ethernet interface, the computer acts as a camera sensor hub [...]
Gateway Device Controls LIN Bus Via USB, Simulates LIN Master Or LIN Slave Nodes
Lipowski Industrie-Elektronik (Germany), a member of the LIN-Consortium, offers its Baby-LIN-II gateway. The Baby-LIN-II represents a small but powerful system to control a LIN bus via USB and simulate LIN master or LIN slave nodes. The galvanically isolated LIN interface avoids problems in harsh environments.The device also supports stand-alone operation without a PC. A durability [...]
Under Development: Galvanically Isolated Quad Channel CAN Bus to USB Gateway For Industrial And Automotive Applications
A few months ago, we introduced a development concept for an Automotive Network Development System with CAN, CAN FD, LIN, Ethernet. After further market research plus very much appreciated feedback from customers, we decided to modify the concept and basically create two devices, one for CAN and LIN, the other to CAN and Ethernet. Ethernet, in [...]
