CAN FD (CAN Bus with Flexible Data Rate) Prototyping For Embedded Systems Such As Arduino, Raspberry Pi
CAN FD was created to accommodate increases in bandwidth requirements within automotive networks. The CAN FD protocol has brought the software closer to "real time" through the minimization of delays between instruction and transfer of data (latency) and higher bandwidth. CAN FD also allows for more storage capacity in a data frame. While the classic CAN [...]
Embedded Computing System based on Freescale i.MX6 Quad Supports Two CAN Bus FD Ports
Janz Tec introduced a series of embedded computers with CAN Bus FD interfaces which can also connect to the IT world.In regards to CAN Bus connectivity, the embedded systems emPC-A/iMX6, emPC-X and the Industrial IoT Gateway series support the CAN FD protocol according to ISO 11898-1:2015, combining the advantages of embedded systems and CAN FD protocols, such as space-saving [...]
Embedded IoT Gateway Connects CAN Bus FD To The Cloud Per LTE Or WLAN
