System-On-Module With ARM Cortex Processor With One CAN Bus Port
Axiomtek introduced their SCM180, a SMARC v2.0 system-on-module with a selection of quad- or dual-core Arm Cortex-A53 processors. The RISC-based module measures 82 x 50 mm and utilizes the i.MX 8M processor. Its scalability, pinout schematic, and profile design offers versatility to help system integrators drive their essential projects. The SCM180 incorporates a Trusted Platform Module [...]
Intel Apollo Lake Celeron Industrial Embedded Board Suitable For In-Vehicle Applications
The EMB-7610 from Estone Technology is a proprietary form factor board, 160mm x 90mm in size and designed with applications such as Digital Surveillance, In-Vehicle Electronics, Industrial Automation, Retail and Medical Technologies in mind. The fanless design operates at temperatures up to 140° F in a combination of up to 95% humidity. The board can adapt to a [...]
IoT (Internet of Things) Development Board For Designing Secure, Google-Cloud-Connected Systems
Microchip Technology announced their AVR-IoT WG Development Board, an Internet of Things (IoT) rapid prototyping system, which is part of an expanded partnership with Google Cloud, thus letting designers to prototype connected devices. The solution links an AVR microcontroller (MCU), a CryptoAuthentication secure element IC and a fully certified Wi-Fi network controller to provide a way to [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - SAE J1939 Monitoring And Simulation
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. As I wrote before, both versions of the Arduino used in this book, the Uno and the Mega 2560, are well suitable for SAE J1939 monitoring and simulation projects. Until now, the simulation of SAE J1939 data traffic involved the purchase of expensive [...]
SAE J1939 Applications with the Arduino
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. In general, there are three different intentions for connecting to a J1939 vehicle network: Mere monitoring, processing, and display of network data traffic. All functions as described under 1. but extended by [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - Message Design
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. For this programming sample I have randomly chosen two PGNs from the vast selection of available parameter group numbers. They are: PGN 65267 – Vehicle Position, provides the vehicle’s latitude and longitude. Transmission Repetition [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - SAE J1939 Simulation Example
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino.The following programming sample demonstrates effectively how easy simulating SAE J1939 data traffic can be (while the level of complexity can be easily adjusted to the application requirements). However, before we dive into the actual coding, we need to design the simulated messages, [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - MCP2515 Function Calls
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. There are further functions, among others, for message filtering and settings masks, and they are worth being checked out for more sophisticated functions, but they are not necessary for simple CAN communication tasks.The implementation of the MPC2515 library is fairly easy: Open Arduino, [...]
SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino - Performance Restrictions
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. It is important to know that neither the Arduino Uno nor the Arduino Mega 2560, even though perfect for prototyping due to low price and ease of programming, are not, in their bare form, an industrial-strength solution, not only in terms of [...]
