The PEAK-System PCAN-GPS Pro FD is a configurable sensor module designed to capture the position, orientation, and acceleration of objects. Housed in stable aluminium housing, it is ideal for measurement chains in harsh environments. Equipped with a powerful dual-core MCU (M7/M4), a magnetometer, a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and a u-blox NEO-M9N satellite receiver supporting GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, GLONASS, SBAS, and QZSS, it delivers satellite navigation data at update rates of up to 25Hz.
Sensor data are transmitted via two parallel LEMO circular connectors over CAN 2.0 A/B (40 kbit/s to 1 Mbit/s) or CAN FD (40 kbit/s to 10 Mbit/s). Configuration of the PCAN-GPS Pro FD is conveniently handled through USB-C using the included Windows software, after which the module operates as an autonomous CAN node. The aluminium-profile housing (IP50/IP54 with sealing plugs) provides high protection and effortless integration.
