Versatile new products with CAN FD connection

PEAK-System will present its new programmable modules and I/O products with CAN FD connection at Embedded World 2024. The PCAN-MicroMod FD ECU allows the integration of customer-specific accessories in commercial and heavy-duty vehicles. The universal control unit has a CAN FD connection, analog and digital I/Os, and a robust casing with automotive connectors. Signal processing and message transmission are configured utilising Windows software via the CAN bus. Alternatively, the ECU can be switched to use the SAE J1939 and J1939 FD communication standards. The company will publish this option free of charge for all PCAN-MicroMod FD products.

The PCAN-GPS FD, released at the beginning of the year, is a programmable sensor module with a CAN FD connection for capturing position, orientation, and acceleration. For this purpose, the module has modern sensors such as a satellite receiver, a magnetic field sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a gyroscope. The processing and transmission of the measurement data, as well as the behaviour of the sensor module, can be freely programmed.

With the new PCAN-RS-232 FD, systems with an RS-232 interface can be incorporated into classic CAN and modern CAN FD buses. Data traffic is converted via the integrated Arm Cortex M4 microcontroller and can be programmed for specific applications. As with the PCAN-GPS FD, the company provides a free development package with programming examples.
