EtherCAT to CAN FD Gateway as a stand-alone Module Solution
- Seamless Connection between EtherCAT and CAN FD
- Reducing the data load by filtering CAN messages internally at the gateway
- Balancing different timings between EtherCAT and CAN using RX and TX message queues
- Robust in use thanks to the galvanically isolated CAN interface
- Also available as CAN classic (CAN CC) only variant
- Further development of the proven CAN-EtherCAT
User-Friendly Configuration
- Simple configuration via EtherCAT MainDevice and standard EtherCAT configuration tools (e.g. esd EtherCAT Workbench)
- EtherCAT SubDevice functionality according to ETG.5001 (CAN Interface - Module Profile No. 5000)
EtherCAT Network Extension
- Connecting Ethernet devices to EtherCAT via Ethernet-over-EtherCAT (EoE) support
- Fast boot time (<1 s) and low power consumption (<2 W) thanks to the optimized selection of components
esd electronics is a member of the EtherCAT Technology Group (ETG).
Linking EtherCAT and CAN
The CAN-EtherCAT/2-FD gateway supports CAN FD implementations according to ISO 11898-1 and provides seamless connectivity between CAN FD modules and a real-time EtherCAT network. This capability enables the integration of CAN FD devices (including CAN CC) into an EtherCAT-based automation system and ensures real-time communication and interoperability across different networks.
Compliant with the EtherCAT Standard
The gateway operates with EtherCAT SubDevice functionality that is fully compliant with the ETG.5001 (CAN Interface - Module Profile No. 5000), ensuring standardized and efficient integration into EtherCAT networks. The firmware of the device can be updated via FoE.
Ethernet-over-EtherCAT (EoE) Support
Additionally, the module can be configured as an Ethernet switch port using the Ethernet-over-EtherCAT (EoE) protocol. This enables the extension of the EtherCAT network to include standard Ethernet devices, enhancing the network's flexibility and capability.
Physical Interfaces
The CAN (ISO 11898-2) compatible interface allows a data-transfer rate from 10 kBit/s up to 1 MBit/s for CAN CC or up to 8 Mbit/s for CAN FD. The CAN FD interface is connectable either via a pluggable 5-pin PCB terminal block with push-in spring connection or via InRailBus. The 100BASE-TX EtherCAT interface is compatible to IEEE 802.3 and runs with 100 Mbit/s. The EtherCAT as well as the CAN interface are electrically isolated.
