Data Sheet

The National Instruments PCMCIA-CAN/DS is a dual-speed Controller Area Network (CAN) interface card designed for communicating with high-speed and low-speed/fault-tolerant CAN devices. NI PCMCIA-CAN cards use the Philips SJA1000 CAN Controller for advanced functionality such as listen-only, self-reception (echo), and advanced filtering modes. Each CAN interface is shipped with NI-CAN device driver software, which reduces development time with tools such as Vector database file import, bus monitoring, Test Panel, and NI Spy. You can synchronize NI CAN and DAQCards using the RTSI-like connector on the PCMCIA-CAN cards. All National Instruments CAN interfaces are designed to meet the physical and electrical requirements for in-vehicle (automotive) networks based on CAN.
