Description
The PCMCIA-CAN, with part number 184272A-02 (Manufactured with part number 777499-01), is a pivotal component in the category of Automotive Networking Products. Manufactured by National Instruments, this device leverages the TJA1041 transceiver to ensure reliable communication. It is specifically designed to interface with the Controller Area Network (CAN), making it a versatile tool for automotive networking applications.
The device is supported by the NI-CAN driver software, which facilitates seamless integration and compatibility with various application tools such as LabVIEW, Visual Basic 6, C/C++, and LabWindows. This wide range of compatible software tools, coupled with support for multiple operating systems including Windows 2000/NT/XP/Me/98 and LabVIEW Real-Time, ensures that the PCMCIA-CAN can be easily incorporated into diverse development environments.
With its PCMCIA bus type and a single port, the device offers a maximum transfer rate of 1000 kb/s. It is designed to be versatile in its power supply options, supporting both an internal (onboard DC converter) and an external (voltage regulator from CAN bus) power supply. Connectivity is facilitated through a 9-pin male D-Sub connector and a Combicon-style removable screw terminal, providing flexibility in physical network connections.
Despite its obsolete status announced by National Instruments, the PCMCIA-CAN remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users of this essential automotive networking product can continue to rely on its performance and support for their critical applications.
