PCAN-M.2
CAN FD for embedded PCs and single-board computers with an M.2 slot
PCAN-M.2 is a CAN and CAN FD card for the M.2 slot found on compact boards, embedded PCs and single-board computers. It uses the PCIe lane of the slot and comes with one, two or four channels.
Each CAN channel is galvanically isolated from the computer up to 300 V and has its own solder-jumper termination. The CAN buses connect through cables ending in 9-pin D-Sub connectors.
