PC Interfaces

Enable PC-based or embedded analysis and control
of CAN, CAN FD and LIN based systems.

Ixxat PC interfaces are used in a wide range of applications, either in test benches to connect the devices to be tested to the test computer or as a control interface in production or handling systems.

The drivers for Windows (VCI), Linux and real-time operating systems (ECI), included in the scope of supply, have an identical programming interface for all interfaces and enable a quick and easy switch between cards without adaptation to the customer's application. Thus, the optimum interface in terms of area of application, performance requirements or target unit costs can be selected at any time.

Standardized APIs

Passthru J2534 and D-PDU-API enabling usage with various third party applications

Tool support

From the included canAnalyser Mini over the powerful CanEasy to third party analyzing/testing applications

One board, many protocols

Up to four CAN, CAN FD and LIN channels on one board, easy expandable by parallel operation

CAN-IB600/PCIe

Active CAN FD Interface for PCI Express

1-2 x CAN FD, CAN (High-Speed), CAN (Low-Speed)

With the CAN-IB600/PCIe HMS offers a CAN FD interface based on a modern and highly modular architecture concept. The interface is available with up to two CAN channels. Each CAN channel can send and receive either CAN FD or CAN 2.0A/B messages. Using the optional expansion modules, the entire range of fieldbuses can be covered with one card – from CAN-FD (ISO as well as non-ISO format), CAN (ISO 11898-2), fault tolerant CAN (ISO 11898-3) to LIN.

Features and benefits

Active board with 32 bit microcontroller
Up to two CAN channels (High-Speed CAN or CAN FD)
Galvanic isolation of the CAN interface
Common driver interface support all IXXAT CAN and CAN FD interfaces and allow easy change of the PC interface type
Powerful programming interface for Windows "VCI" and "ECI" for Linux, QNX, RTX, INtime and VxWorks

The CAN-IB600/PCIe is an active interface which fulfills even high reqirements in data pre-processing, like intelligent data handling and active filtering of the received and transmitted messages.

If required, the number of CAN channels can be increased by using multiple CAN interfaces in one PC.
