PCAN-RS-232 FD
Bring serial devices onto a CAN FD bus with a programmable converter
PCAN-RS-232 FD converts traffic between an RS-232 port and a CAN FD connection, so machines, PLCs, sensors and actuators with a serial interface can join a classic CAN or CAN FD network.
On delivery its firmware routes CAN FD to RS-232 and back, and you set up the transfer and the hardware with serial commands; the source code of that firmware is included as an example. For other behaviour, write your own C or C++ firmware with the included GNU package and load it over CAN.
Highlights
- RS-232 to CAN FD and back
- Standard firmware with serial command setup
- Freely programmable, Arm Cortex-M4
- RS-232 up to 460,800 bit/s
- 2 digital I/Os
- 8 to 32 V supply, -40 to 85 C
Software
- Standard CAN FD to RS-232 firmware, with source code as an example
- Windows development package with GCC ARM Embedded and examples
- PEAK-Flash for Windows 11 (x64/ARM64) and 10 (x64)
- Loading firmware over CAN needs a PEAK CAN interface
