CAN Bus, CAN FD, LIN, J1939, And CANopen Network Analysis Tool
Warwick Control Technologies, a UK company, has released version 3.11.0 of its X-Analyzer network analysis tool. The software provides standard CAN Bus, CAN FD, and LIN all-in-one tool, along with higher-layer protocols such as SAE J1939 and CANopen. When purchased in combination with the Kvaser Hybrid or Hybrid Pro interfaces, the product can be used with standard CAN [...]
CompactPCI Multi I/O Board With CAN FD Capability
The SBF-Crossover from EKF is a peripheral slot card for CompactPCI serial systems, and it provides CAN FD capabilities. The board comes with four single USB 3.0 compliant controllers, and two Gigabit Ethernet NICs, all wired for front I/O. Also, a PCI Express Mini Card socket is provided onboard, which is useful, e.g. for a Fieldbus I/O module such [...]
CompactPCI Board Features Up To 16 CAN FD Ports
EKF (Germany) has introduced their SF2-Candy quad PCI Express Mini card carrier board, which supports up to four PCIe‑based modules, each providing four CAN FD channels.The CAN FD interfaces of the SF2-1080-Candy modules provide up to four CAN FD ports. The CAN FD interfaces are available at 25-pin or 50‑pin D-sub connectors. Each CAN FD port is [...]
Arm Cortex-M33 Micro-Controller With CAN FD For Secured IoT (Internet-of-Things)
STMicroelectronics introduced their cyber-protection to power-conscious connected devices with the STM32L5 micro-controller (MCU) series featuring the Arm Cortex-M33 core, which also provides a CAN FD interface.Building on the Cortex-M33, boosting protection for small devices by integrating ARM's Trustzone hardware-based security, the STM32L5-series MCUs add further enhancements. They include software isolation, secure boot, key storage, and hardware [...]
Mini PCI Express Real-Time Interface For CAN Bus Or CAN FD
Kvaser announced their Mini PCI Express HS v2, a single-channel and a dual-channel Mini PCI Express interface boards with low latency designed for real-time environments. The two single- and dual-channel interfaces communicate with the PC over the PCI Express system bus, allowing for real-time performance and 1 µs time-stamping. They support both Classical CAN and CAN FD and [...]
CAN-to-CAN Bridge/Router with CAN FD Support Plus CAN Bus To Ethernet interface For Cloud Connectivity
HMS/IXXAT announced their Service Pack 1 (SP1) for the Ixxat CANbridge NT and CAN@net NT. This includes added features such as configurable and event-triggered Action Rules, and straight-forward cloud connectivity via MQTT. SP1 introduced Action Rules for CANbridge NT and CAN@net NT, allowing users to define a variety of actions to be performed automatically in response to received [...]
In-Vehicle Security Development Kit With CAN Bus And CAN FD Message Authentication
Microchip Technology introduced their CryptoAutomotive In-Vehicle Network (IVN) TrustAnchor/Border Security Device (TA/BSD) development kit. This kit is designed to enable OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to introduce security to networked vehicle systems, starting in areas of priority, without disruption elsewhere. The CryptoAutomotive TA/BSD development kit emulates a secure node in an automotive network and provides system [...]
CAN With Flexible Data Rate (CAN FD) Devices For Embedded Systems Such As Raspberry Pi, Arduino, And Teensy
Developed by Bosch (Germany), CAN with Flexible Data Rate (CAN FD) is an extension to the original CAN Bus protocol as specified in ISO 11898-1 that responds to increased bandwidth requirements in automotive and industrial networks. CAN FD is supported by semiconductor chip manufacturers and end users alike, with Infineon, NXP, Daimler and GM among the [...]
Embedded Platform For Automotive Applications Supports CAN Bus And CAN FD
The FRC-EP170 and the FRC-EP190 by HMS/IXXAT are universally usable hardware platforms for applications on the test bench or in vehicles. Among others, the devices provide classical CAN Bus and CAN FD interfaces. Expansion slots enable to add other interfaces, including WLAN, GSM, or GPS. Both devices have the same processor and the same operating system, making the new variant completely [...]
PCIe Board Supports Up To Four Isolated CAN Bus Or CAN FD Ports
The PCAN-M.2 by PEAK System allows the connection of classical CAN Bus and CAN FD networks via M.2 interface (PCI Express, PCIe) as supported by modern computers. With its small form factor, the plug-in card is ideal for embedded PCs, single-board computers (SBC), and compact embedded applications. There is a galvanic isolation between the computer and the CAN side, [...]
