Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN

The Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN (EAN 73-30130-00965-3) is a two-channel USB interface in which each channel is set to CAN or LIN on its own. With two separate D-SUB 9 connectors, one unit can sit on two CAN buses, two LIN buses, or one of each, which suits gateway and body-network work where CAN and LIN meet. CAN channels handle CAN FD up to 5 Mbit/s with a suitable physical layer, the CAN buses are galvanically isolated, and the free Kvaser CANlib and LINlib APIs set up each channel. Pertech is the authorized Kvaser sales representative in Israel.

Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN highlights

• Two channels, each assigned independently as CAN or LIN
• Connects to two CAN buses, two LIN buses, or one CAN and one LIN bus
• High-speed CAN (ISO 11898-2) up to 1 Mbit/s, and CAN FD up to 5 Mbit/s with a suitable physical layer
• LIN 2.2A (ISO 17987 Parts 1 to 7) from 1 to 20 kbit/s
• Up to 20,000 messages per second on each CAN channel, with 50 µs timestamps
• Galvanically isolated CAN buses and error frame detection
• USB powered; LIN use needs the bus V+ reference connected
• LEDs for device status and bus activity
• SocketCAN support on Linux, plus the free CANlib and LINlib APIs
• Compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000 and DeviceNet

Where the Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN fits

• Gateway ECU testing, with the CAN side and the LIN side watched from one unit
• Body and comfort networks that mix CAN backbones with LIN sub-buses
• Logging or simulating two CAN or two LIN buses at the same time
• Linux test setups that use SocketCAN
• Two-bus work that does not need the t script, silent mode and MagiSync of the Kvaser Hybrid Pro 2xCAN/LIN
