Kvaser Hybrid CAN/LIN

The Kvaser Hybrid CAN/LIN (EAN 73-30130-01284-4) is the entry model of the Kvaser Hybrid family: a single-channel USB interface whose one D-SUB 9 port can be configured in software as either CAN or LIN. That makes it a practical all-round tool for engineers who move between CAN, CAN FD and LIN networks on vehicle and component projects. It draws power from the USB port, isolates the CAN bus drivers galvanically, and comes with the free Kvaser CANlib and LINlib APIs for configuring the channel. Pertech is the authorized Kvaser sales representative in Israel.

Hybrid CAN/LIN highlights

• One channel, selectable in software as CAN or LIN

• LIN 2.2A (ISO 17987 Parts 1 to 7) from 1 to 20 kbit/s
• Up to 20,000 messages per second, with 50 µs timestamps
• CAN 2.0A and CAN 2.0B active frames
• Galvanically isolated CAN bus drivers and error frame detection
• USB powered, with LEDs for device status
• Compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000 and DeviceNet
• Free Kvaser CANlib and LINlib APIs, plus CanKing 7 analysis software
• Rated for -40 °C to 85 °C

Where the Hybrid CAN/LIN fits

• Engineers who need one interface for CAN, CAN FD or LIN work, one bus at a time
• Testing LIN body electronics such as switches, sensors and actuators
• Bench work on a single CAN or CAN FD node from a laptop
• Labs that want a low-cost spare interface for both bus types
• Single-bus setups; for two buses in one unit, see the Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN, and for t script, silent mode and MagiSync, the Kvaser Hybrid Pro CAN/LIN
