Purchased together with ready-to-use motherboards that provide peripherals for specific requirements. 

For the connection of CAN, I/O, and power supply, spring terminal connectors are used. The motherboard PCAN-MicroMod FD Analog 1 puts the emphasis on analog inputs and outputs, which are provided with appropriate protective circuitry.

The PCAN-MicroMod FD is configured using the supplied Windows software. In addition to simple I/O mapping to CAN IDs, function blocks are also available for processing the data. The configuration created on the computer is transferred via the CAN bus to the PCAN-MicroMod FD which then runs as an independent CAN node. Multiple modules can be configured independently on a CAN bus. (Requires a PCAN interface.)

All PCAN-MicroMod FD products can alternatively be operated with CANopen firmware. Licenses for the CANopen/CANopen FD firmware are available from our partner Embedded Systems Academy.
