SAE J1939-CAN Bus Drivers, Modems and Protocols
Eurotech has developed supplied embedded systems with SAE J1939-CAN Bus drivers for years. Compliant interfaces can be provided for any CPU architecture including Atom, PXA, iMX, x86 and PowerPC. Drivers can be provided and integrated with XP, CE or Linux operating systems. SAE J1939-CAN Bus interfaces can be engineered into custom devices, or supplied in PC104, PCI, ETX or other form factors.
The J1939 protocol is an ISO and SAE standard for serial data communication on vehicles. Today, J1939 has gained widespread use for vehicle monitoring and control and is well-suited for a variety of applications in industrial automation as well. J1939 is also the basis for various other field bus technologies.
Eurotech offers J1939 /CAN 2.0B protocol on a ARM/RISC and x86 platform on many Eurotech products. We furnish an API from either Linux or CE or Windows, and sample wrappers to make the bus available from applications written in VB C# or other Microsoft managed code.
Some Eurotech standard products include two J1939 /CAN bus controllers allowing service of different subsystems at different speeds.
For heavy vehicles, we can provide a SAE J1708 interface.
Some off the shelf products with CAN Bus include:
- Sphere II- perhaps the lowest cost SBC with CAN on the board, Sphere has a powerful 32 bit Cirrus CPU with both Linux and Windows CE Support and plenty of other I/O fro embedded vehicle controllers
- Zeus- This PXA270 EPIC format board has CAN and abundant additional I/O, including plug in options for modems, Zigbee and more
- GCM- the powerful PXA320 CPU at 624 MHz, with CAN on the board. High speed graphics at low, ARM power.
- AIM104-CAN A PC-104 Single Channel Opto-Isolated CAN interface module supporting the Philips SJA1000 Controller (CAN 2.0B compliant) Use with any of the Eurotech PC104 computers
The drivers you want can be detailed in a project 'Scope of Work' document, engineered and then supplied with each board supplied under a mutually agreeable OEM Contract.
