CAN232  -  an RS232 serial to CAN interface

CAN232 supports both 11 bit ID and  29 bit ID CAN specifications with a maximum throughput of 1000 short messages/sec at 115,200 baud. The RS232 interface standard is ideal for use with PCs where it can be connected to a standard COM port with no system software as well as allowing legacy equipment to easily interface to CAN. 

CAN232 includes a 32 message receive buffer, a millisecond time stamp on messages if required and an Auto Poll mode in which all CAN messages are passed directly to the RS232 port without having to be requested individually.  Firmware can be uploaded to incorporate new features as they are released.

Simple monitor and transmit applications are available that are written in Delphi and VB6.  Source is supplied so they act both as test/setup tools and as sample code to get you going.  C++ and Linux code is also available.

We can also supply this product as a DIP28 package for you to integrate into your application ( with or without RS232 Level transceiver ). Prices for one off are on the web shop call us for volume pricing.

Or as the CANDIP/M162 we can supply it without any software for you to add your own application.
