Non-Contact Rotary Position Sensor With J1939 Output For Vehicle Applications

Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division has launched the NRH27C, a non-contact rotary position sensor which is suitable for on- and off-highway vehicles utilizing CAN Bus communications. The full range of the digital output span corresponds to a rotation of 360°, and the positional information is determined by the angle of the supplied magnet relative to the sensor body. The maximum [...]

Authentication And Encryption for SAE J1939 And Other CAN Bus Protocols

At the time when the Controller Area Network (CAN) standard was designed, security was not a requirement. The primary usage of the CAN Bus was considered complete; possible intruders or attackers would simply not get physical or remote access to the network. However, today it is more and more common that devices connected to a CAN [...]

Position Control With Embedded J1939-Compliant Linear Actuator Is Superior To Hydraulic Actuator

Manufacturers of agricultural, construction, and other off-highway equipment are increasingly deploying electromechanical actuators instead of hydraulic actuators, the primary reason being their simplicity and environmental benefits. Now, intelligent electromechanical actuators that support the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus networking standard give designers more reasons to choose such a solution. Support for the CAN/J1939 networking protocol [...]
