PCAN-PCI Express FD (1ch/2ch/4ch)

SKU #: IPEH-004026, IPEH-004027, IPEH-004040

The PCAN-PCI Express FD plug-in card made by PEAK System Technik allows the connection of a PC with PCI Express slots to CAN FD and CAN networks. The card provides galvanic isolation of up to 500 Volts between the computer and CAN sides. This CAN FD interface for PCI Express systems is also available with the free PCAN-View application and the PCAN-Basic Programming interfaces for standardized protocols from the automotive sector. It is available with single, dual, or quad CAN channels.
