Compact Ethernet/CAN interface with USB connection
The new hardware can be used in tasks ranging from remaining bus simulations to Ethernet monitoring and synchronization of Ethernet frames with other bus systems such as CAN. In particular, developers will benefit from highly precise time stamps with a common time base for synchronizing the various systems.
The VN5610 bus interface has two separate channels for Ethernet and CAN, which enables simultaneous operation of a remaining bus simulation with the CANoe.IP or CANalyzer.IP Vector tools. While two high-speed CAN channels are available in the CAN section, the Ethernet section supports Broad-R-Reach and standard Ethernet IEEE 802.3 (100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T). The advantage here is that the user can connect existing standard Ethernet loggers and accessories when used as an Ethernet media converter. The new interface can also readily handle the new CAN FD standard with its reconfigurable FPGA hardware architecture.
