Description
The USB-8473 is a highly sophisticated, 1-Port High-Speed USB-CAN Module with Sync, identified under part numbers 194210D-01L, 779792-01, and 194210C-01. This particular model is designed to facilitate seamless integration and communication within automotive networks or industrial automation systems.
At the core of this module lies the Philips SJA1000 CAN controller, complemented by the TJA1041 CAN handset. These components work together to ensure reliable data transmission and reception across CAN networks. The USB-8473 module boasts a suite of advanced features including Listen-just mode, Rest/wakeup mode, Access to mistake counter, Auto-gathering mode (resound), and Time stamping in microseconds, which significantly enhance its functionality and operational efficiency.
When it comes to performance, the USB-8473 does not disappoint. It supports a maximum transfer rate of 1,000 kbit per second, enabling fast and efficient data communication. The module is designed to operate within a power range of 12 V to 16 V, with a continuous current of 0.6 A, a peak current of 12 A, and a maximum power consumption of 20 W. Such specifications make the USB-8473 a robust and reliable choice for demanding applications.
The physical layer compatibility of the USB-8473 extends to both High-speed and Low-speed/fault tolerant CAN networks, facilitating versatile deployment scenarios. Connection to CAN networks is achieved through a Female DB-9 connector, ensuring easy and secure attachment.
Designed to withstand harsh operational environments, the USB-8473 operates within a temperature range of -40 to 120 degrees Celsius. This resilience makes it an ideal choice for automotive and industrial applications, where extreme temperatures are a common challenge.
Software compatibility is another key feature of the USB-8473. It is fully compatible with NI-CAN driver software and can be seamlessly integrated with LabVIEW, offering a flexible and user-friendly programming environment. This
