1.3 Specifications 1.3.1 Electrical Parameters The safe and stable operation of the M.2CANFD interface card requires a certain electrical environment. Table 1.1 lists the electrical parameters of the interface card. Exceeding the parameter values listed in the table may cause the product to work unstable and inoperative, or even burn the board.
Requirements 1.3.3 Operating Temperature The M.2CANFD interface card can work in an industrial-grade environment. Its applicable operating temperature range: -40°C to +85°C. Using the interface card in too low or too high ambient temperature will make it work abnormally and shorten its service life.
Network power supply positive 2.3 Terminal Resistance As shown in Figure 2.3, the PACK interface board attached to the M.2CANFD interface card has a built-in 120-ohm terminal resistance. Use the DIP switch S1 to select whether the CAN channel terminal resistance is connected to the bus network. As shown in Figure 2.4, set whether the CAN channel uses the 120 ohm terminal resistance.
CAN1 The CAN interface is faulty After the M.2CANFD interface card is powered on, the system status indicator RUN is green, indicating that the device is powered on, and the system is operating properly; if the system status indicator RUN is off, the system power supply fails or a serious error occurs in the system.
