Mini PCIe Dual CAN FD Interface
In developmentA USB-based internal module designed to add two CAN / CAN FD channels to compatible Mini PCIe systems.
FORM FACTORFull-size Mini PCIe
HOST INTERFACEUSB 2.0 signals in the slot
NETWORKS2 independent CAN FD channels
STAGEEngineering development
Compatibility notice
This module uses the Mini PCIe connector but does not use PCIe data lanes. The host slot must provide compatible USB 2.0 signals.
OVERVIEW
Internal CAN FD without an external desktop adapter.
Designed for embedded computers and industrial PCs that need two CAN FD networks available from an internal slot.
Intended applications
- Industrial and embedded computers
- Robotics and automation development
- CAN network test systems
- Vehicle and equipment integration benches
