Posted by
onThe Leaf Light HS v2 J1939-13 Type II, a standout in Kvaser's Leaf Light product series, is renowned for its reliability and affordability in connecting any CAN network to a PC or mobile computer. It's not just a workhorse but a dependable and cost-effective solution.
The Leaf Light HS v2 J1939-13 Type II is a device that allows easy connection between a PC and the onboard computer of any J1939-compliant vehicle or industrial system. You can obtain diagnostic data using its USB 2.0 connector and a 9-pin J1939-13 (Type II) compliant CAN connector, color-coded in green and supports either 250 Kbps or 500 Kbps vehicle networks.
Major Features
- Standard “A” USB connector and a J1939-13 Type II compliant CAN connector.
- Capable of sending up to 8000 messages per second, each time-stamped with 100 microsecond accuracy.
- Supports 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers.
- High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit/s.
- Galvanic isolation, enhancing protection from power surges or electrical shocks.
- Support for SocketCAN. See elinux.org for details.

SAE J1939 Starter Kit and Network Simulator
Our J COM.J1939 Starter Kit and Network Simulator is designed to allow the experienced engineer and the beginner to experiment with SAE J1939 data communication without the need to connect to a real-world J1939 network, i.e., a diesel engine.
To establish a network, you need at least two nodes, which applies especially to CAN/J1939, where the CAN controller will shut down after transmitting data without receiving a response. Therefore, our jCOM.J1939 Starter Kit and Network Simulator consists of two J1939 nodes, namely our jCOM.J1939.USB, an SAE J1939 ECU Simulator Board with USB Port.
