Embedded board release from Kvaser
Introducing Kvasers latest innovation, the M.2 PCIe 4xCAN embedded board. A cutting-edge compact board designed to elevate your connectivity experience, equipped with four distributed controller area network (CAN) transceivers. The M.2 PCIe card seamlessly integrates high-speed CAN/CAN FD with any host computer featuring PCI Express connectivity and an available B or M keyed M.2 slot.
Unprecedented Compactness
The M.2 PCIe 4xCAN distinguishes itself with its remarkably compact footprint, featuring an M.2 card size of 22 x 80 mm. Its industry-leading height of just 2 mm further underscores its exceptional design and space efficiency. The distributed (off-board) placement of CAN transceivers optimizes signal speed and integrity, enhancing its suitability for CAN FD applications. This unique design feature ensures proximity to CAN networks, contributing to superior performance.
Robust Connectivity: PCB-to-PCB Cabling and Galvanic Isolation
Each CAN module connects to the card through 30 cm long PCB-to-PCB cabling, making it an ideal choice for systems with enclosures. The individual isolation of each CAN channel ensures optimal galvanic isolation. Operating seamlessly within the standard industrial temperature range of -40 to 85°C, this board ensures reliability and resilience in diverse environmental conditions. Its robust design makes it well-suited for applications that demand consistent performance across a wide range of temperatures.
Precision, Speed, and Advanced Features
Experience precision with a time stamp resolution of 1 μs and a maximum message rate of 20000 msg/s per channel. The equipped features with distributed CAN transceivers, seamlessly integrates into embedded systems. This is thanks to advanced features like silent mode and error frame detection/generation. Its applications are diverse, covering motor control in mobile robots, automated driving simulation black boxes, and CAN data acquisition in medical automation, fleet management, and industrial system monitoring. The versatility of this technology makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Elevate your connectivity solutions with the unparalleled performance and versatility of the CompactLink M.2 PCIe 4xCAN.
