PCI Express® Mini Card with 2 CAN FD (CAN-PCIeMini/402-FD)

The CAN-PCIeMini/402-2 is an add-in PCI Express Full-Mini Card, that features two electrically isolated CAN High-Speed interfaces. The PCI Express® Mini Card comes with two CAN FD interfaces. There is also a version that can be used for extended temperature range. The optional adapter CAN-PCIeMini/402-DSUB9 comes with a DSUB9 connector, selectable on board CAN termination and an adapter cable. All CAN FD versions are fully backwards compatible with CAN and can also be used in Classical CAN applications. The independent CAN nets are driven by the ISO 16845:2004 certified esdACC (esd Advanced CAN Core) implemented in the Altera FPGA. The FPGA supports bus mastering (firstparty DMA) to transfer data to the host memory. This results in a reduction of overall latency on servicing I/O transactions in particular at higher data rates and a reduced host CPU load. Due to the usage of MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts) the board can be operated for for example in Hypervisor environments.
