USB adaptor for connecting CAN networks

Support for all high-layer protocols through transparent tunnelling of messages

The USB-CANmodul2 is an enhanced version of the USB-CANmodul1, featuring two CAN channels. As a reliable and robust USB adapter, it is suitable for connecting CAN networks to Windows and Linux devices such as PCs, laptops and embedded controllers. Thanks to the transparent tunnelling of CAN messages, the module can be used with CAN-based high-layer protocols such as CANopen, SDS, DeviceNet or J1939 .

A high-performance 32-bit CPU core with an integrated message buffer enables reliable communication even under high bus load and provides precise timestamps for the received CAN messages.

The PC driver allows for simple plug-&play installation and supports the simultaneous operation of up to 64 CAN channels on a single host. Via virtual networks, the driver enables the USB-CAN module to be used simultaneously by different applications.

Alternatively, the second interface can be fitted with CAN transceivers for Low Speed or Single Wire. In addition, an 8-bit digital I/O expansion port can be integrated as an option.

Thanks to its attractive price-performance ratio and its reliable compact design, the USB-CAN module is ideally suited for CAN bus-based developments, service and maintenance tasks in CAN bus systems, as well as for use in mass-produced products. The included CAN monitoring software rounds off the package.

The USB-CAN module complies with the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
