PCAN-Router FD
Two programmable CAN FD channels that bridge CAN and CAN FD
PCAN-Router FD connects two CAN FD or classic CAN buses and routes data between them under control of your own firmware. A typical job is converting between CAN 2.0 and CAN FD, so that a new CAN FD device can work inside an existing classic network. The processor is an NXP LPC4078 (Arm Cortex-M4 with FPU, 120 MHz), and the module comes in an aluminium profile casing with D-Sub or screw-terminal connections.
It ships with a standard firmware whose source code is included. Custom firmware is built in C or C++ with the Windows development package and GCC ARM Embedded, then loaded over CAN. An RS-232 port, a digital output and digital inputs give the firmware a few extra signals to work with.
Highlights
- 2 CAN FD channels, data rates up to 12 Mbit/s, ISO and Non-ISO
- CAN to CAN FD conversion in either direction
- Freely programmable in C/C++, Arm Cortex-M4F
- RS-232 port plus digital input and output
- Termination per channel by solder jumper
- 8 to 30 V supply, -40 to 85 C
Versions
- IPEH-002214: PCAN-Router FD with D-Sub connectors
- IPEH-002215: PCAN-Router FD with Phoenix screw-terminal connector
Software
- Standard firmware installed on delivery, source code included
- Windows development package with GCC ARM Embedded and programming examples
- PEAK-Flash for Windows 11 (x64/ARM64) and 10 (x64)
- Loading firmware over CAN needs a PEAK CAN interface
