Description
The PCI-8513 is a specialized network interface card with the part number 780684-01. This card is designed for applications that require robust, high-speed communications over the Controller Area Network (CAN). It offers a single port that is software selectable for FD CAN, providing flexibility and ease of use for various applications.
One of the key features of the PCI-8513 is its array of capabilities such as a device simulator for NI CAN, an advanced volume creator, fast CAN line, fast CAN connector, and computerized input switches. These features make it an excellent choice for developers and engineers looking for a reliable and high-performance CAN interface card.
In terms of connectivity, the PCI-8513 is equipped with 14 parallel wired ports, including 7 standard NI CAN D-SUB pinouts and 7 screw-terminal removable connectors. This wide range of connectors ensures that the card can be easily integrated into various systems and setups without the need for additional adapters or cables.
The card is also designed with power supply needs in mind, featuring an onboard control supply for V+ pins. This ensures that connected devices can be powered directly from the card, simplifying the system design and reducing the need for external power supplies.
Termination is another aspect where the PCI-8513 shines, offering software-enabled options for 120 Ω, 60 Ω, or no-end termination. This flexibility allows users to optimize their network for specific applications and cable lengths, ensuring reliable communication under various conditions.
Compatible with NI-XNET CAN and LIN interfaces, the PCI-8513 recommends using no-end cables for optimal performance. It also supports NI-XNET FlexRay interfaces with 9-pin D-SUB cables, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of automotive and industrial applications.
Additionally, the card comes with a NI CAN to OBD-II cable for the J1962 diagnostic connector, allowing for easy connection to vehicle diagnostics systems. This feature makes the PCI-8513 an invaluable tool for automotive engineers and technicians working on vehicle testing and diagnostics.
