The new CAN FD adapter from PEAK-System PCAN-USB FD allows the connection of CAN FD and classic CAN networks to a computer via USB. The simple handling and its compact plastic casing make the adapter suitable for mobile applications. This CAN interface device features galvanic isolation of up to 500 Volts which decouples the PC side from the CAN bus. Also available in galvanically isolated and non-isolated classic CAN versions.
The PCAN-USB package includes device drivers for Windows® 11 (64-bit) and 10 (32/64-bit), the PCAN-Basic API, and the PCAN-View CAN monitor software. Linux drivers are also available. For customers needing more sophisticated CAN Analyzing software we have PCAN-Explorer 6.
