Description The Ethernet/CAN-Gateway EtherCAN CI transmits data between a CAN network and Ethernet systems. As an universal CAN-Interface with an Ethernet interface, EtherCAN CI is independent from internal data busses and thus can be used with a variety of different work stations (PC, Mac, UNIX-workstation). EtherCAN CI includes a Winbond W90N740CD (ARM7 core) with 80Mhz clock and a Linux operating system. In addition, the device has 16MB SDRAM and 2MB Flash. The connection to the CAN bus is done by a CAN controller of type NXP SJA1000 and supports the CAN protocols 2.0A and 2.0B. The protocol used for the communication between a host and EtherCAN CI is documented and disclosed. Development kits that allow the development of host applications for the operating systems Windows 2000/XP/Vista or Linux as well as the development of applications for the local implementation of control functions on EtherCAN CI are separately available.
