Robust, single-channel CAN/CAN FD USB-C interface with galvanic isolation. Modern laptops and PCs come with USB-C slots only, so the Kvaser U100-C has been added to Kvaser’s U100 range of robust, single-channel CAN/CAN FD to USB interfaces. This interface is based on the standard Kvaser U100 with DB-9 connector, but replaces the standard USB type “A” connector with the smaller USB-C format. As with other devices in the range, this is powered via the USB bus. Robust, galvanically-reinforced and signal and power isolated, the Kvaser U100 range offers enhanced electrical protection, a vibration, shock and drop-proof housing and high-quality cabling that establishes a new reference in CAN interface design. Other variants of the U100 range pair a standard USB type “A” connector with a 9-pin D-SUB, M12 or OBD-II CAN connector. A Precision version is also available - the Kvaser U100P - with a standard USB type “A” connector to a 9-pin D-SUB. Features Tech Specs Documents Downloads Major Features Supports CAN FD, up to 8 Mbit/s (with correct physical layer implementation). Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers. Powered through the USB-C connector. Supports bit rates from 10 Kbit/sec up to 1 Mbit/sec. Lightweight, glass fibre reinforced polyamide housing, overmolded with TPE. IP67 rated. DB-9 connector (other connectors available). Intuitive LED UI. Reinforced galvanic isolation, design validated with 5000 VAC rms applied for 60 s. Industrial grade temperature range, −40 oC to +85 oC. 20 000 msg/s, each timestamped with a resolution of 100 μs. Support for SocketCAN. Compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000R and DeviceNet. Fully compatible with applications written for other Kvaser CAN hardware with Kvaser CANlib.
