The new CAN FD Pro from PEAK-System, PCAN-USB Pro FD adapter enables the connection of CAN FD and LIN networks to a computer via USB. Two field busses can be connected at the same time, up to four with appropriate adapter cables (2 x CAN FD, 2 x LIN). Each CAN FD channel is separately isolated against USB and LIN with a maximum of 500 Volts. Its robust aluminum casing makes the PCAN-USB Pro FD adapter suitable for mobile applications.
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.
- Transmitting and receiving of CAN FD and LIN messages using 2 D-Sub connections (both with pin assignment for the CAN FD and LIN bus)
- Adapter for High-speed USB 2.0 (compatible to USB 1.1 and USB 3.0)
- Time stamp resolution 1 μs
- 5-Volt supply at the D-Sub connector can be activated through a solder jumper, e.g. for external bus converter
- Voltage supply via USB
- Extended operating temperature range from -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F)
CAN operation properties:
- FPGA implementation of the CAN FD controller
- Complies with CAN specifications 2.0 A/B and FD 1.0

- CAN bit rates from 40 kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s
- NXP TJA1044GT CAN transceiver
- Each CAN FD channel is separately opto-decoupled against USB and LIN up to 500 V
- CAN termination can be activated through a solder jumper
- Measurement of bus load including error frames and overload frames
- Induced error generation for incoming and outgoing CAN messages
LIN operation properties:
- Bit rates from 1 kbit/s up to 20 kbit/s
- TJA1021/20 LIN transceiver
- Both LIN channels (common ground) are optodecoupled against USB and CAN FD
- Can be used as a LIN master or slave (1 ms master task resolution)
- Automatic bit rate, frame length, and checksum type recognition
- Autonomous scheduler with support for unconditional, event, and sporadic frames
- Hardware can work through a schedule table (up to 8 schedule tables can be configured with a total of 256 slots)
