CANopen PCI Express communication card CIFX 90E-2CODNETF

DeviceNetDMA

Product Overview
The CIFX 90E-2CO\DN\ET\F is a Mini PCI Express 2-channel communication card for PC-based automation. It provides one CANopen and one DeviceNet interface, each configurable as Master or Slave. The protocol stack runs autonomously on the card (netX firmware) and exchanges process data with the host via Dual-Port-Memory or Direct Memory Access (DMA). A uniform Hilscher cifX driver and toolset ensure identical integration across protocols and card formats. Hardware options include detached network interfaces (15 cm or 30 cm cable), M12 connectors, optional NVRAM and extended temperature variants up to 70 °C.

Highlights

• One CANopen and one DeviceNet interface (configurable as Master or Slave) in a single Mini PCI Express slot
