The Kvaser LAPcan is a two channel CAN interface for the PC card (PCMCIA) bus with two Philips SJA1000 CAN controllers. The CAN transceivers are built into the interface cables.

Major features

  • Quick and easy plug-and-play installation
  • The CAN drivers (DRVcans) are exchangeable; see below
  • Physical layer depends on the DRVcan type
  • Ultrasonically welded card frame
  • Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers
  • The on-board firmware will auto-detect the type of DRVcan
  • Driver support for major operating systems
  • PC card (PCMCIA) type II, on-board C161 16-bit microcontroller
  • Large on-board RAM buffer for CAN messages
  • Supports ”listen-only” mode for analyzing tools

DRVcan – required cable, connector and CAN driver for LAPcan

  • For maximum flexibility and maintainability the CAN driver circuit is built into LAPcan interface cables. Please see separate documentation of our DRVcans.

  • The Kvaser DRVcans must be purchased separately and are not included with the LAPcan. Note that one or two DRVcans are required to use the LAPcan.

Software support

  • Drivers for Windows 95/98/ME/NT 4.0/2000/XP/2003/Vista, Windows CE and Linux.
  • Kvaser CANLIB SDK, which includes everything you need to develop software for the Kvaser CAN boards. Includes full documentation and many program samples, written in C, C++, Delphi, Visual Basic, and C#. All Kvaser CAN interface boards share a common software API. Programs written for one board type will run without modifications on the other board types!
  • J2534 Application Programming Interface
  • RP1210A Application Programming Interface
  • On-line documentation (in Windows Help and Adobe Acrobat format)
  • Documentation, software and drivers can be downloaded for free from www.kvaser.com, or they can be purchased in CD if preferred. Updates to the software are regularly posted on the web.
  • Download the User's Guide in PDF format.
