The CAN-2-USB is a CAN/USB converter unit that connects to the USB port of a PC to enable CAN communication. The unit complies with CAN 2.0B communication standards and supports communication speeds of up to 1 Mbps. It includes a USB Type-C port and can operate using the bus power from the host. Support for the SAE J2534 protocol also allows for use as a communication interface during automobile maintenance diagnosis and ECU programming. An API for low-level data transmission/reception is also available, enabling usability as a CAN communication device during inspections of automotive parts and ECUs.
Main Features
- CAN communication function
The CAN-2-USB can expand the 2-channel CAN communication function to a PC. The unit complies with the CAN 2.0B communication standard and supports communication speeds of up to 1 Mbps. Each channel is controlled by a separate CAN controller, allowing for independent communication that is not dependent on the status of other channels.
- Bus power operation with no need for an external power supply
The communication unit uses USB bus power to operate, so no external power supply is necessary.
- Supports a wide range of power supplies (10 to 32 VDC)
With support for 10 to 32 VDC power supplies, the unit can be used in a wide range of power supply environments even without USB bus power.
- Optional Windows support software
Windows applications can be created using the device driver API-TOOL provided on the Contec website.
