ValueCAN 4

Low-Cost, High-Performance Vehicle Network Interface Family for CAN and CAN FD

ValueCAN 4 Family Overview

ValueCAN 4-2EL (2 CAN FD, 1 Ethernet, 1 LIN)

ValueCAN 4 Industrial (2 Isolated CAN FD, 1 Ethernet, 1 LIN)

The ValueCAN 4 series is Intrepid’s next generation of low-cost, high-performance interfaces for CAN and CAN FD networks. A family of four 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 2 or 4 CAN / CAN FD channels, as well as an option 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
