Kvaser's Leaf Supports Classical CAN, CAN FD in Silent Mode
Every professional CAN Bus development, may it be Classical CAN, CAN FD, or higher layer protocols such as SAE J1939, requires a data monitoring device for proof of functionality. Kvaser has introduced such a device, the Leaf v3 interface supporting Classical CAN and CAN FD in optional Silent Mode. The Leaf series depicts one of the straightforward [...]
Automotive Development Module has CAN FD, LIN, Ethernet Port
Renesas has launched a software development board featuring the R-Car S4 System-on-Chip (SoC). The scope of delivery includes the Whitebox SDK open-source software. The R-Car S4 facilitates the launch of Car Server/CoGW with high performance, high-speed networking, high security, and high functional safety levels required as E/E architectures grow into domains and zones. The R-Car S4 solution [...]
Industrial Strength Dual CAN FD Interface in Mini PCIe Form
The VL-MPEu-C1 module by Versalogic, compliant with the Mini PCIe format, is a tiny and rugged dual-channel CAN Bus add-on interface. It supports CAN-FD for high-speed data transfer but is still fully compatible with CAN 2.0 A and CAN 2.0 B (Classical CAN). It supports additional CAN functions, including message acceptance filtering, listen-only mode, and wake-up [...]
Programmable CAN Bus to USB, Bluetooth, BLE, WiFi Gateway
For the longest time, I had resisted the idea of creating my version of a CAN-to-USB gateway, primarily due to the vast competition. A professional CAN/J1939 development requires a professional CAN-to-PC solution to monitor data traffic. I am pleased with the PEAK PCAN-USB device, as shown in the above image. However, not everybody is willing [...]
PCIe Board with 4-Port Isolated CAN FD for Applications
Sunix (Taiwan) manufactures CAN (FD) interface cards for commercial, agricultural, military, government, recreational, and other industries. Their recently introduced CAN4F00SI PCIe card offers four isolated CAN FD ports. The interface cards can self-diagnose and repair data errors to meet the demand for accurate UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) control in mission-critical applications. The mission computers, autopilot computers, actuators, [...]
Mini PCI-E Module with Classical CAN, CAN FD, and GNSS
Antzer Tech, a subsidiary of Innodisk, introduced their GADN-FD7L0 PC interface card, which integrates CAN (CAN bus 2.0 a/b, OBDII, SAE J1939), CAN FD, and GNSS features into one mini PCI-E combo module. The board comes in a standard Mini PCI Express form factor. It supports USB 2.0 and two independent CAN FD ports with data-phase bit [...]
ECU and GPS Modules with CAN, CAN FD, SAE J1939 Connections
PEAK-System presented several innovative I/O products with Classical CAN and CAN FD connections in this year's Embedded World trade show. The versatile control unit PCAN-MicroMod FD ECU integrates customer-specific accessories for automotive applications. For this purpose, the device offers a CAN FD connection and a combination of analog and digital I/Os. The I/O processing and message [...]
Automotive Power Management IC with LIN and CAN-FD Interfaces
The SPSB081 by STMicroelectronics is a power management chip providing electronic control units (ECU) with power management functionality. It supports CAN FD and, optionally, comes with LIN transceivers. The SPSB081 operates at various standby modes with programmable local and remote wake-up capabilities to minimize power consumption. The chip has a low-drop voltage regulator to supply the host microcontroller [...]
Standard IoT Gateway with ARM i.MX8M Plus Quad-Core Cortex-A53 Supports Two CAN FD Ports
Aaeon, a manufacturer of reliable and high-quality computing platforms, introduced its SRG-IMX8P IoT gateway solution with two CAN FD interfaces, which brings extended connectivity and utility across vertical markets. It is powered by Arm NXP i.MX8M Plus quad-core Cortex-A53 and Cortex-M7 processors with 8 GiB of onboard DDR4 reduce object detection time to 13 msec via a Neural [...]
ESP32 Triple CAN Bus Application Through Adding Two MCP2515 Ports
The first question that may arise when talking about accessing the MCP2515 CAN Bus controller per ESP32 may be, "Why would you need an MCP2515 controller when the ESP32 comes with an internal CAN port?" Yes, I found this question in one of the online forums while researching this particular topic. The answer is easy: [...]
