Coming Soon - CAN-Bus FD Board For Raspberry Pi 3
Developed by Bosch, CAN with Flexible Data-Rate (CAN FD) is an extension to the original CAN protocol as specified in ISO 11898-1, which responds to increased bandwidth requirements in automotive networks. CAN FD has the support of semiconductor chip manufacturers and end users alike, with Infineon, NXP, Daimler and GM among the companies behind the new [...]
Dual Channel Interface Can Be Configured Either As CAN Bus Or LIN
Kvaser's Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN is a flexible, dual channel interface where each channel can be configured independently, either as CAN Bus or LIN (Local Interconnect Network). With a standard USB connector and two high-speed CAN or LIN channels in two separate 9-pin D-SUB CAN connectors, this is a high-performance, yet compact ’universal interface’ that every engineer involved in automotive [...]
Low-Cost, High-Performance Vehicle Network Interface Family With 4 CAN Bus and CAN FD Ports
Intrepid Control Systems, Inc. has announced their ValueCAN4 family, which also provides optional Ethernet (DoIP) and LIN connectivity. The device supports up to 1 Mbit/s for CAN bus connectivity and up to 10 Mbit/s for CAN FD communication. The ISO 11898-2 standard specifies currently transceiver chip parameters for 5 Mbit/s. The dongle family complies with USB 2.0 [...]
SAE J1939 (CAN Bus) To RS232 Gateway With USB Option
We at Copperhill Technologies always thrive in adding more products to our line of OBD-II and SAE J1939 devices. Our current focus is on a SAE J1939 to RS232 gateway that can also easily used to connect to a USB port. The firmware will be identical to that of our SAE J1939 to Bluetooth Gateway With [...]
Controller for Automotive Applications Supports Three CAN Bus Interfaces
The VC36PLC-24 Controller by Vector was specially developed for communications in electrically-powered commercial vehicles. The ECU hardware offers an interface for the standardized communication, e.g. between electric networks or urban trucks and the charging infrastructure. It features a PLC interface and three CAN interfaces for communication including shielding. The controller provides the physical interface to control the Combo-2 connector [...]
How CAN Bus Automatic Baudrate Detection Works And What To Consider When Connecting To A Network
Automatic CAN Bus baudrate detection comes in handy when you need to connect to a CAN network without knowing its actual transmission speed. Rather than playing with CAN baudrate settings and testing if you are able to see data, the automatic detection will deliver the right result within seconds, however, depending on busload. A heavy [...]
