PCAN-PCI Express - Four-channel CAN Interface for PCI Express


PEAK-System presents a new hardware design of the CAN interface for PCI Express. The PCAN-PCI Express card is available as a single, dual, and for the first time as a four-channel version. All cards have a galvanic isolation of up to 500 Volts, separately for each CAN port. For the operation of external devices a 5-Volt supply can optionally be routed to pin 1 of the CAN connector by setting solder bridges on the PCAN-PCI Express card, independently for each CAN port.

The CAN bus connection is based on an FPGA implementation of an NXP SJA1000 CAN-compatible controller and the NXP CAN transceiver PCA82C251. The card offers a High-speed CAN transmission according to the CAN specification ISO 11898-2.

Like all CAN interfaces of the PCAN series, the PCAN-PCI Express comes with the CAN monitor PCAN-View for Windows® and the programming interface PCAN-Basic. Device drivers are available for Windows® 7/Vista/XP and Linux, each in 32-bit and 64-bit editions.
