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 [...]
Arduino Based CAN Bus, LIN Bus Development And Prototyping Boards For Automotive And Industrial Applications
Teensy is a line of Arduino-compatible boards designed to offer maximum I/O capabilities, backed up by a slew of fully featured software libraries designed to run on Arduino. The Teensy is a complete USB-based microcontroller development system in a minimal footprint, and it is capable of implementing many types of projects. All programming is done [...]
CAN Bus Controller With Two CAN Ports And LIN Bus Master Interface For Mobile Applications
Wuerth Elektronik ICS introduced their Intelligent Control and Command System controllers ICCS 121P CAN and the ICCS 64P V2 CAN, which both come with two CAN Bus and one LIN Bus ports.The ICCS controllers support the full CAN 2.0 Standard with 11‑bit and 29‑bit CAN Bus message identifier lengths and bit rates from 20 kbit/s to 1 Mbit/s with [...]
PCIe Board Features Four Channels For CAN FD/Classical CAN And LIN Bus Connectivity
HMS Networks extended its IXXAT PC-interface portfolio with the introduction of its multi-channel board CAN-IB 640/PCIe, which provides four channels, each for CAN FD/Classical CAN and LIN Bus connectivity.Automotive systems and industrial applications often operate using several Classical CAN and CAN FD networks, connected to additional testing, monitoring, and control systems. The multi-channel CAN-IB 640/PCIe card [...]
LIN Bus Serial Analyzer Development Tool For Automotive Applications
The LIN Serial Analyzer development tool enables the user to monitor and communicate to a LIN (Local Interface Network) bus using a Personal Computer (PC). It is a powerful tool that can be used to send messages, monitoring the bus traffic, perform error checks, and filter messages. There are many other features, allowing the user to [...]
Design Concept: Ethernet Controller For Embedded IoT Systems And Automotive Networking
We at Copperhill Technologies have plans to create gateways for automotive networking, which includes serial protocols such as Automotive Ethernet, CAN (Controller Area Network), and LIN (Local Interconnect Network). The following focusses on the Ethernet part of the concept, where Ethernet also applies to Internet-of-Things (IoT) and Industrial-Internet-of-Things (IIoT) applications. The basic idea is to build [...]
Arduino Compatible LIN Bus And CAN Bus Development Kit
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) is a serial network protocol used for communication between components in vehicles. The demand for a second serial network emerged as the technologies and the facilities implemented in modern cars grew, while the CAN Bus was too expensive to implement for every component in the car.The Arduino Compatible LIN Bus And CAN [...]
LIN To CAN Bus Gateway - Implementing CAN Bus And Lin Bus Master With Arduino-Compatible Teensy Board
This post is a follow-up to a previous entry, LIN To CAN Bus Gateway - Prototyping And Firmware Development With The Arduino-Compatible Teensy Board. The Teensy USB Development Board Teensy is a brand of microcontroller development boards created by PJRC and designed by the co-owner, Paul Stoffregen. As a long-time maker of creative technologies, Paul saw the versatility [...]
PCI-Express (PCIe) CAN Bus/LIN Bus Network Interface For Accessing CAN Bus And LIN Bus Networks
Vector announced its newest PCIe network interface board, the VN1530, supporting four onboard communication ports and two additional piggybacks for increased flexibility. The system supports channel combinations for interfacing to CAN Bus, CAN FD, LIN Bus, and other network technologies. The board addresses the growing demand for more channels, especially at test benches, test PCs and in-rack use.The product [...]
Interpreting CAN Bus, LIN Bus, RS485, RS232 Networks Per Logic Analyzer
Ikalogic (France) has launched a series of test instruments, including the SP209, a nine-channel, 200‑MHz logic analyzer which can, among other serial technologies, interpret CAN Bus protocols. The series aims to analyze CMOS logic signals and industrial networks alike. The SP209 combines specific receivers for most common industrial systems like CAN Bus, LIN Bus, EIA‑485, or EIA‑232. The [...]
