National Instruments NI-9862 C Series CAN Interface Module

The NI‑9862 (Part Number: 781639-01) from National Instruments is a high-speed CAN Interface Module that offers a typical arrangement of simple-to-use capacities for examining and composing CAN, LIN, and FlexRay edges and signals. The NI‑9862 comes equipped with NI-XNET interfaces that unite the precise execution of low-level microcontroller programming with the speed and intensity of Windows and LabVIEW Real-Time OS. Equipped with a single port, the interface module features a NXP TJA1041AT transceiver that is fully compliant with the ISO 11898 standard. The transceiver supports a maximum baud rate of 1 MB per second.

The maximum number of CAN nodes included on the NI-9862 Interface Module is determined by the electrical properties of the nodes. If each node satisfies ISO 11898 standards, then at least 30 of them can be connected to the bus. On a network, the NI-9862 supports a minimum of 110 CAN ports. In terms of power consumption, the interface module consumes a maximum of 1 W of power from the chassis. The thermal dissipation of the device draws in a maximum of 1.25 W when in active mode.

Voltage safety is an important consideration of the NI-9862 CAN module, which features of maximum voltage of -27 to +40 VDC for Port-to-COM. A CAN bus is defined when two or more CAN nodes are connected by cables. The port of the NI-9862 can be connected to any point on a CAN bus.

The NI-9862 has a random operating vibration of 10 Hz to 500 Hz (5 grms), and a sinusoidal operating vibration of 10 Hz to 500 Hz (5 g). It can withstand operation shock that peaks at 30 g. It is recommended to operate this NI device within a temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C with a humidity range of 10% to 90% (noncondensing). The recommended storage temperature range is slightly wider, ranging from -40 °C to 85 °C. The humidity for storage conditions of the device is also noncondensing, ranging from 5% to 95%. The compact NI-9862 weighs just 144 g (5.0 oz).
