PiCAN2 Duo CAN-Bus Board for Raspberry Pi With SMPS
Discontinued. See replacement board info below.
Product Description
This product has been replaced!
The PICAN2 DUO Board with SMPS is now available with a new SMPS version (3 Amp instead of 1 Amp) to also support the Raspberry Pi 4 (still works with Raspberry Pi 3).
This PiCAN2 DUO board provides two independent CAN-Bus interfaces for the Raspberry Pi 2/3. It uses the Microchip MCP2515 CAN controller with MCP2551 CAN transceiver. Connections are made via a 4-way screw terminal. This board also comes with a 5 VDC 1A SMPS that powers the Raspberry Pi as well via the screw terminal.
Easy to install SocketCAN driver. Programming can be done in C or Python.
The Switch mode power supply (SMPS) allows connecting an input voltage range of 6 VDC to 20 VDC suitable for industrial and automotive applications and environments.
Raspberry Pi 4 Compatibility
The SMPS version of the PiCAN board is currently not suitable for the new Raspberry Pi 4 Model B. The RPi 4 requires a 5VDC@3Amp power supply, while the SMPS supplies only 1 Amp.
