CAN and CAN FD adapter on high-speed USB 2.0
The PCAN-USB FD connects a computer to a CAN or CAN FD network via the USB port. A galvanic isolation of up to 500 V separates the PC from the CAN bus. Its plug-and-play operation and compact plastic housing make it an ideal tool for mobile use.
The CAN FD (Flexible Data rate) standard stands out above all for its increased bandwidth for data transfer. Up to 64 bytes of payload data (versus 8 previously) can be transmitted at a bit rate of up to 12 Mbit/s. CAN FD ensures backward compatibility with the CAN 2.0 A/B standard, allowing CAN FD nodes to be used on an existing CAN network (though the CAN FD extensions cannot be used in this case).
The PCAN-View display software and the PCAN-Basic programming interface, both CAN FD compatible, are included in the delivery.
CAN FD ISO / Non-ISO
Since its first implementations, the CAN FD protocol has evolved and is now included in the ISO 11898-1 standard. This revised version, however, is not compatible with the earlier version of the protocol.
PEAK-System accounts for this situation by supporting both protocol versions in its CAN FD interfaces. Users can therefore switch between ISO and non-ISO modes at any time via software. Products marketed before February 2015 require a firmware update to benefit from this feature. For further information, contact info.peak@hms-networks.com.
