Communication gateway ARM7

RS232CAN

SerCAN is a protocol converter between CAN and devices with RS232 interfaces. SerCAN allows the connection of devices with serial interfaces to CAN based systems, e.g measuring devices, barcode scanners and handheld terminals. SerCAN obtains its potential through the use of a 32 bit microcontroller with 48MHz clock. High speed processing and low latencies allow the use with high data rates and busloads. SerCAN covers the typical applications for protocol conversions. If SerCAN is used as universal CAN interface, the generation of any desired CAN message under control of the serial device is the most favourable solution. In this case, a fixed, error detecting protocol is used at the serial interface. This protocol is open documented and implemented as default firmware. Filtering of incoming CAN messages is possible and configurable by the user. Should there be a demand to change the serial protocol, an application development kit is available, which allows the implementation of custom specific firmware.
