CANopen Module For Raspberry Pi And Other Embedded Systems
Emsa (formerly Embedded Systems Academy) announced their new product, the CANgine-Berry, an active CAN co-processor module that uses a regular UART communication channel towards the host system. With its independent 32-bit micro-controller, the product can execute CAN protocols with tough timing demands such as CANcrypt or CANopen with response times of under 10 ms. Depending on the [...]
CAN Bus / OBD-II Bluetooth Scanner Ready For Release
We have just finished the development of our jCOM.CAN.BTS product, a CAN Bus and OBD-II scanner device with Bluetooth connection (the image to the left shows the development setup). The device scans for user-defined CAN message frames and transmits them per Bluetooth to a PC or Android phone or tablet (A BLE - Bluetooth Low [...]
XMC Board With Four CAN Bus FD Ports And Optional IRIG-B
esd electronics announces their XMC-CAN/402-4-FD, an XMC board that comes with four independent CAN FD (CAN With Flexible Data Rate) interfaces according to ISO 11898-1:2015. They are driven by the ISO 16845:2004 certified esdACC (esd advanced CAN Core) implemented in the Altera FPGA. The FPGA supports bus mastering (first-party DMA) to transfer data to the host memory. [...]
PCI Express Module With Four Isolated CAN Bus Ports For Defense And Avionics Applications
Acropack CAN modules from Acromag (USA) target defense and avionics applications with PCIe mezzanine supporting Arinc 825 and CAN aerospace standards. The AP560 module provides four independent, isolated CAN channels. Each channel has a H13111 CAN controller by Holt paired with a galvanic isolated ADM3053 transceiver by Analog Devices. Designed for defense and avionics applications, the interface board is configurable to [...]
CANgineBerry - Active CANcrypt And CANopen Module For Raspberry Pi And Other Embedded Computing Platforms
The CANgineBerry CANopen is an active CAN co-processor module that uses a regular UART communication channel to connect to the host system. With its independent 32-bit microcontroller, the CANgineBerry can easily execute CAN protocols with tough timing demands such as CANcrypt or CANopen with response times of under 10 ms.Depending on the configuration, the CAN communication [...]

CAN Bus Data Logger Comes With USB And WiFi Connectivity
CSS (Denmark) has announced its CANLogger3000, a device that stores recorded CAN Bus data on a 16-GiB SD-card. The device is also available within the United States. The logged bus traffic can be retrieved per Wifi connection at up to 70 Mbit/s or via USB. In stationary mode, the data-logger is able to connect to a Wifi [...]
Vehicle Computer With SAE J1939 Interface For Utility Vehicles, Agricultural And Construction Machines
Syslogic has announced their VSL Compact 81 vehicle computer as part of its mobile computing range. The computers are used in trains, busses, and even automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in construction as well as agricultural machinery.All electronic components are firmly soldered in the vehicle computer, which also has no moving parts. Instead of rotating memory, industrial [...]
Electronic Control Unit (ECU) With Five CAN Bus Ports Plus Ethernet, Flexray, And LIN Bus Interfaces
Expinovo (Germany) has developed an ECU (electronic control unit) with multiple interfaces used in in-vehicle networks, including five CAN Bus ports. The CatchTheBus® device supports the CAN FD protocols (four of the five CAN interfaces). The programmable ECU by Expinovo also provides interfaces for Ethernet, Flexray, LIN (two ports), and EIA-232 (two ports). Additionally, the product features four [...]
CAN FD Kit With Dual CAN FD Transceiver, Ethernet, And RS232C Interface
NXP has announced their OM13094 LPCXpresso54618 CAN-FD kit. It provides a dual CAN/CAN-FD transceiver for use with CAN-enabled LPCXpresso V3-style boards. The board features the NXP TJA1059 dual transceiver, plus an EIA-232C transceiver. The module is compatible with all the LPCXpresso546xx boards (although LPCXpresso54608 only supports Classical CAN, not CAN FD). Jumpers are used to enable or disable CAN [...]
