CANopen µChip

The SYS TEC CANopen µChip provides full CANopen functionality of a DS 401 compliant device on a single-chip microcontroller solution. It comes ready-to-use, pre-programmed with the latest CANopen firmware.

Its enormous flexibility makes the CANopen µChip best suitable for a broad range of deeply embedded OEM applications. Seven I/O configurations provide a variation of digital inputs and outputs, analog inputs as well as PWM outputs.

Using the CANopen µChip jump-starts your development cycle. By sparing yourself the task of developing your own CANopen firmware, you can instead concentrate on your target peripherals, thereby reducing the time-to-market of your product. No orientation into the CANopen protocol internal workings is necessary.
