ValueCAN 4
Low-Cost, High-Performance Vehicle Network Interface Family for CAN and CAN FDThe ValueCAN 4 series is Intrepid’s next generation of low-cost, high-performance interfaces for CAN and CAN FD networks. A family of five related products, the ValueCAN 4 series offers CAN FD support, increased buffer size, improved latency performance, software-controlled CAN bus termination, enhanced LED indicators for CAN traffic, standalone operation over USB, a ruggedized metal case with protective rubber boot, and high-speed USB 2.0 support (480 Mbps) with Type A or Type C connectors.
Multiple channel and cable configuration options permit support for 1 to 4 CAN / CAN FD channels, as well as options that includes LIN and Ethernet/DoIP.
Key Features
- High-bandwidth 1 Mb/s baud rate for CAN and up to 8 Mb/s for CAN FD on each channel
- Double-buffered CAN transmission
- Fully USB-powered
- Fully isolated from the PC to resolve grounding or noise issues
- Rugged metal case with rubber boot on all models
- Electrically hardened to survive abusive environments, including reverse battery voltage and electrical transients
- Real-time acceleration and standalone mode enabling high-speed flashing, gatewaying and ECU simulation
- Load real-time Function Block scripts and C code created with Vehicle Spy to execute with microsecond resolution
- Supports J1939, OBD2 on CAN, Keyword Protocol over CAN, UDS diagnostics, CCP/XCP, DeviceNET, and CANOpen
- ISO15765 for CAN FD implemented in hardware for super-fast ECU flashing
- Supports neoVI DLL open API, J2534, Linux, and RP1210
- 64-bit timestamping to an accuracy of 25 nanoseconds
