Kvaser M.2 PCIe 4xCAN

EAN: 73-30130-01333-9
Price: USD 814.00

Kvaser M.2 PCIe 4xCAN is a highly-integrated embedded CAN board that adds four high speed CAN/CAN FD channels to any host computer with PCI Express connectivity and an available B or M keyed M.2 slot.  

This CAN interface board has a particularly compact footprint, thanks to an M.2 card size of 22 x 80 mm and industry-leading height of just 2 mm. Unique to the Kvaser M.2 PCIe 4xCAN is that the CAN transceivers are distributed (off-board), allowing them to be located closer to the CAN networks themselves. This layout maximises signal quality and integrity.

With a timestamp resolution of just 1 μs and a maximum message rate of 20000 msg/s per channel, plus advanced features such as silent mode, error frame detection and generation, this advanced board with distributed CAN transceivers can be integrated in a wide range of embedded systems.

Major features

  • B+M keyed M.2 PCI Express CAN interface with four channels.
  • Distributed and modular CAN modules minimising the signal integrity impact when connected to CAN-bus systems.

  • Compact footprint, ideal for embedded applications, thanks to the M.2 card size of 22 x 80 mm.
  • Supports CAN FD, up to 8 Mbit/s.
  • Quick and easy plug-and-play installation.
  • Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers.
  • Fully compatible with applications written for other Kvaser CAN hardware with Kvaser CANlib.
  • High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit/s.
  • Compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000® and DeviceNet. Higher layer protocol translation handled by the user’s application. For software support please see our Technical Associates products and our Software Download page (www.kvaser.com).
  • Supports silent mode for analysis tools – listen to the bus without interfering.
  • Supports simultaneous usage of multiple Kvaser interfaces and SocketCAN.
