Network Interfaces - CAN / LIN

Multi-Channel CAN/LIN Interface
VN1670

The VN1670 is a multi-channel CAN/LIN interface with up to 15 channels, additionally providing digital and analog IOs. The interface can be connected to the host PC via USB or Ethernet. This provides a high flexibility and an optimal network access for analysis, test and simulation purposes, especially for setups with high channel count. Thanks to its robust housing and the various mounting and stacking capabilities, the device is perfectly suited for the use in vehicles.

VN1670 Advantage
