National Instruments PCI-CAN/LS2 CAN Interface Device

The PCI-CAN/LS2 (Part number: 778007-02) is a low-speed/fault-tolerant CAN Interface Device from National Instruments. The instrument comes with two ports. The NI PCI CAN LS2 device has a built-in tolerance capability against faults. This feature helps the user carry out accurate measurements. The instrument also has a TJA1054A transceiver. The transceiver is highly tolerant towards faults. This further enables the device’s implementation in the development of applications for CAN. The maximum data transfer rate of the device is 125 kb per second. The instrument operates on DC voltage. The voltage and current ratings are +5 Volts and 900 mili-amperes.

The NI PCI-CAN/LS2 CAN Interface Device comes with NI-CAN driver software, which enables the integration of the module quickly. The instrument also offers separate connectors for each of the two channels. These I/O connectors are male DB9 connectors. These are designed in accordance with the recommendation of GiA DS 102. This CAN Interface Device additionally offers real-time support for LabVIEW, further extending the operational capabilities. This feature also enables the user to receive maximum benefits from the device.  

The NI PCI-CAN/LS2 CAN Interface Device is a reliable instrument with sustained performance capabilities in tough environments. The range of relative humidity for the device’s normal operation has the value from 5% to 95%. This value is given for a non-condensing environment. The NI PCI-CAN/LS2 CAN Interface Device is strictly verified for noise emissions since this device fully complies to the FCC Class A specifications. The dimensions of this model are 8.15 x 4.4 inches.
