CAN Bus

Each module of the M4KCAN (Controller Area Network) contains up to six channels, each containing 256 bytes of dual-port RAM for Data Blocks and control registers. All Data Blocks and control registers are memory mapped, and may be accessed in real time.

The M4KCAN modules support the standard and extended message frames in CAN Specification 2.0 part B. They have the capability to transmit, receive, and perform message filtering on extended message frames with a 29-bit message identifier. Due to the backwardly compatible nature of CAN Specification 2.0B, the M4KCAN also fully supports the standard message frames in CAN Specification 2.0 part A.

PCI Express The EXC-4000PCIe/xx card for the PCI Express bus support up to twenty four CAN Bus channels using the M4KCAN module.

PCI The EXC-4000PCI/xx card for the PCI bus support up to twenty four CAN Bus channels using the M4KCAN module.

cPCI The EXC-4000cPCI/xx card for Compact PCI systems support up to twenty four CAN Bus channels using the M4KCAN module.

PC/104 Plus The EXC-4000P104Plus/xx card for PC/104 Plus systems support up to twelve CAN Bus channels using the M4KCAN module.

VME / VXI The EXC-4000VME/xx and EXC-4000VXI/xx cards for VME & VXI systems support up to forty eight CAN Bus channels using the M4KCAN module.
