Kvaser Leaf v3

Kvaser Leaf v3 single-channel USB to CAN FD interface with D-SUB 9 connector
description

The Kvaser Leaf v3 (EAN 73-30130-01424-4) is a single-channel USB interface that connects a PC to a CAN or CAN FD network for monitoring and sending traffic. Its CAN SIC transceiver keeps CAN FD stable at 8 Mbit/s even on demanding network layouts, and the small housing, USB power and built-in galvanic isolation make it a practical everyday tool for developers, test engineers and service teams. The Leaf v3 is the successor to the Kvaser Leaf Light HS v2. Pertech is the authorized Kvaser sales representative in Israel.

Leaf v3 highlights

  • CAN FD up to 8 Mbit/s through a CAN SIC transceiver, and high-speed CAN up to 1 Mbit/s
  • Up to 20,000 messages per second, each timestamped at 50 µs resolution
  • Galvanic isolation as standard, powered from USB with no external supply
  • Silent mode for listening to the bus without affecting it

  • Designed and made in Sweden, built to meet the EU Cyber Resilience Act

Where the Leaf v3 fits

  • Bench development and debugging of CAN and CAN FD ECUs
  • Passive bus monitoring in silent mode during vehicle or machine tests
  • Diagnostic applications built on J2534, RP1210 or ISO-TP
  • Setups that run several Kvaser interfaces from one PC
  • Tight installations that need a compact, self-powered interface
