Ask a question

The Peak PCAN-Router is a dual-channel CAN router/bridge featuring a programmable microcontroller from the NXP LPC21 series. This allows CAN messages to be processed flexibly on both channels. Furthermore, the module offers extensive options for filtering, evaluating and routing CAN data. In complex applications, messages can be easily modified or forwarded. In addition, the router supports a wide range of CAN network topologies within automotive and industrial environments. This creates a flexible solution for professional CAN communication.

Firmware is developed using the programming library and the GNU compiler for C and C++. This firmware is then loaded onto the module via CAN. Upon delivery, the PCAN-Router already comes with standard CAN bridge firmware. This firmware forwards CAN messages 1:1 between both channels at 500 kbit/s. Furthermore, the complete source code is included as an example. This allows developers to quickly get started with their own CAN applications. Customisation is also possible for filtering, routing and data processing within CAN networks.

The PCAN-Router is housed in a robust aluminium extrusion casing designed for industrial applications. Versions are also available with two D-Sub connectors or a screw-type connector. This allows the PCAN-Router to be easily integrated into existing CAN systems. In short, the PCAN-Router CAN bridge combines flexibility, programmability and reliable CAN communication in a single compact solution.

FAQ

  • Are CAN terminating resistors built into the PCAN-Router?

    Yes, terminating resistors are built in, but they are disabled by default. The termination can be activated using a solder bridge, for each desired CAN-channel, which requires special tools.
    As a convenient alternative, we can offer the Termination adapter CAN/ CAN FD as an accessory. It can be easily installed between the D-sub 9 connector and the cable without any tools, for each desired CAN channel.

  • Does this bridge support CANopen or J1939?

    Yes, the PCAN-Router works with all CAN messages, including CANopen and J1939

    However, the CAN messages are not interpreted as CANopen or J1939. In filter and mapping tables, or action rules, for example, the messages are treated as standard CAN messages. enquire about the configuration options.

  • Can I order on account?

    Yes, that's definitely possible! Most customers place their orders through a Purchase Order.
    First request a quote and then send the purchase order (PO) by email, simply from your own purchasing system.
