Facilitate efficient communication between otherwise isolated networks with a PCAN router.
 These routers bridge the gap between components that must communicate for high performance and functionality. Use this PCAN router to develop your own custom firmware to manipulate, evaluate, configure, and route CAN messages according to your precise needs.
Flexible PCAN Routers
This versatile PCAN router from industry-leading manufacturer PEAK-System Technik can be utilized in a number of applications, such as automotive testing and development, industrial automation, production plants, and integrating new CAN devices into an existing network.
The dual-channel CAN module allows for flexible handling of CAN messages between different CAN buses and includes an NXP LPC21 series programmable microcontroller for custom message processing. The built-in function libraries, WinARM software, and firmware sample enable you to create your own bespoke firmware for optimal communication.

FAQsÂ
How do you set up a PCAN router?
To set up a PCAN router, you need to configure its firmware using the provided development package. Use the GNU compiler for C/C++ to create custom firmware, then upload it to the router via CAN using a PEAK CAN interface. The router comes pre-loaded with standard firmware for basic message forwarding.
How does the microcontroller work?
You must first program the NXP LPC21 series microcontroller to handle CAN messages according to your custom requirements. The microcontroller uses the uploaded firmware to process CAN messages according to the programmed logic.
What speed are PCAN router channels?
PCAN router channels support bit rates from 40 kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s for standard CAN. By default, the standard firmware typically operates at 500 kbit/s.
Can PCAN routers handle multiple CAN protocols simultaneously?
Most PCAN routers can handle multiple CAN protocols simultaneously. This allows for the seamless integration of different CAN-based systems and devices. Thus, PCAN routers are versatile and can be used in mixed protocol environments in automotive and industrial applications.
What is the difference between a PCAN router and a CAN gateway?
A PCAN router is typically more flexible and programmable than a standard CAN gateway. While both can connect multiple CAN networks, PCAN routers offer customizable firmware for advanced message processing and routing. Gateways usually have fixed functionality, whereas routers can be programmed to implement complex logic, filtering, and even protocol conversion between CAN and CAN FD.
