PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) Interface Supports CAN Bus, CAN FD, FlexRay, 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-T1
The Flexcard PMC-II by Star Corporation is an interface device for automotive bus systems connecting up to eight Classical CAN or CAN FD networks to a host controller.The eight ports are configurable regarding the physical layer (Flextiny II) with switchable bus termination resistors included onboard. All interfaces are synchronized by employing time-stamps with a resolution of one [...]
Industrial-Strength CAN Bus Interface for PC/104 Supports Up To Two Isolated CAN Bus Ports
The CAN PC/104 board by PEAK System (distributed by gridconnect in the United States) is a high-performance solution for connecting one or two high-speed CAN Bus networks with a PC/104 Bus system. The board carries the SJA1000 CAN controller and the 82C251 driver. Up to four cards can be stacked within one system, and the position of the board [...]
MCP2515 CAN Bus Monitor Demo Board Kit Forms A Simple Two-Node CAN Bus Network
The MCP2515 is a low pin count stand-alone CAN Bus controller which interfaces to a microcontroller via a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). The MCP2515 is a second-generation stand-alone CAN Bus controller. It is pin and function compatible with the MCP2510 and also includes upgraded features like faster throughput, data byte filtering, and support for time-triggered protocols.The feature [...]
Programmable SAE J1939 Analog Signal Output Controller
The 4 Analog Signal Output CAN Bus Controller by Axiomatic extends machine control networks by adding I/O control to the CAN Bus. Diesel engine control systems with SAE J1939 can communicate with 4-20 mA or other analog signal input devices using this controller as a smart interface. The controller can be configured to accommodate a particular application utilizing [...]
CANopen Architect Software For Creating And Editing Electronic Data Sheets (EDS)
CANopen is a higher layer protocol operating on a CAN Bus network. The CAN Bus specification defines solely the physical and data link layers in the ISO/OSI 7-layer Reference Model. Consequently, only the physical bus and the CAN Bus message format is defined, but not how the CAN Bus message applies. CANopen provides an open and [...]
SAE J1939 Simulator Generates Frequently Used SAE J1939 Signals (PGNs) For Diesel Engines
Our SAE J1939 ECU Simulator Board With USB Port allows any host device (e.g., PC) with a USB COM port to monitor SAE J1939 data traffic and communicate with the SAE J1939 vehicle network, which makes it also suitable to simulate SAE J1939 data traffic. The simulation of SAE J1939 signals (i.e., PGNs) is a valuable [...]
CANopen Library For Linux Based Application Development
The CANopen Magic Pro Library by Embedded Systems Academy is a system supporting customized CANopen based PC applications for quick and easy development without the need to know all details of the CANopen protocol stack. The kit consists of a professional CANopen library along with documentation, a C header file and makefile for gcc. The CANopen library achieves [...]
SAE J1939 And CAN Bus Display Gauges For Off-Road And On-Road Vehicles
Veethree Technologie (UK) offers a range of CAN Bus and SAE J1939 LCD display gauges. The range of gauges directly wires to an SAE J1939 compliant CAN Bus without needing another device to drive them. Compact and easy to install, the gauges are available in 2″ & 3" sizes, in conventional black or white dial colors with chrome [...]
SAE J1939 vs. CAN Bus - Physical Layer And Higher Layer Protocol (HLP)
To answer the fundamental question upfront: SAE J1939 is a higher-layer protocol (i.e., an add-on software) that uses the CAN Bus technology as a physical layer. In addition to the standard CAN Bus capabilities, SAE J1939 supports node addresses, and it can deliver data frames longer than 8 bytes (in fact, up to 1785 bytes). However, [...]
Repeaters for CAN Bus, CAN FD And CAN-Based Higher Layer Protocols Such As CANopen And SAE J1939
Adding to the current IXXAT line of CAN bridges and gateways, HMS Networks launched four Ixxat CAN FD repeaters, all supporting both the new CAN FD standard as well as traditional CAN Bus.With the IXXAT CAN FD repeaters, HMS allows the networking of existing CAN Bus systems as well as in CAN FD-based systems.The repeaters enable CAN FD (CAN [...]
