PCAN-USB Pro FD
Two CAN FD and two LIN channels in one rugged USB adapter
PCAN-USB Pro FD brings CAN FD and LIN to a PC over one USB port. Each of its two D-Sub connectors carries both a CAN FD and a LIN line. With suitable adapter cables you can work on four buses at once, two CAN FD and two LIN. The aluminum housing is built for field and vehicle use.
Each CAN FD channel has its own isolation, up to 500 V, from USB and from LIN. The two LIN channels share a ground and are isolated from USB and CAN FD. LIN runs as master or slave and detects bit rate, frame length and checksum type automatically. It also has a built-in scheduler. The adapter is a drop-in replacement for the earlier PCAN-USB Pro and behaves the same on CAN and LIN.
Highlights
- 2 x CAN FD and 2 x LIN over a single USB connection
- CAN FD up to 12 Mbit/s, ISO and Non-ISO switchable
- 500 V isolation for each CAN FD channel
- LIN master or slave, specification up to 2.2
- 1 µs time stamp resolution
- -40 to 85 C operating range
Software
- CAN and LIN device drivers for Windows 11 (x64/ARM64), Windows 10 (x64) and Linux (kernel 2.6 and later)
- PCAN-View (CAN monitor) and PLIN-View Pro (LIN monitor) for Windows
- PCAN-Basic and PLIN-API for writing your own CAN and LIN applications
- Programming interfaces for standard automotive protocols
