This thermocouple-to-CAN module produces temperature data from 4 thermocouple sensors and outputs it via CAN bus. The module is 100% standalone - no PC required.
The module supports all thermocouple types (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T) and can be daisy-chained for 8, 12, 16, ... channels.
You can integrate the module with any CAN bus system - e.g. to provide temperature data for your ECUs or existing CAN hardware.
As an example, you can use the module as an add-on for the CANedge - ideal for e.g. engine dynos, EGT analysis, HVAC monitoring and other temperature telematics use cases.

Filtering | Line frequency filtering of 50Hz and 60Hz (via configuration) |
Fault Detection | Thermocouple fault detection (open thermocouples, over- and undertemperature) is communicated via CAN |
Cold Junction | ±0.7°C (max, -20°C to +85°C) cold-junction accuracy |
DATA PARAMETERS | |
CAN Signals | The module communicates temperatures and fault statuses (for a full list, see the Docs or DBC file) |
Thermocouple temperatures: The degree celsius (degC) temperature of each thermocouple probe [5 Hz] | |
Ambient temperature: The ambient temperature measured via internal cold-junction [5 Hz] | |
Faults: Status of each thermocouple sensor [5 Hz] | |
CAN BUS | |
Channels | 1 x CAN channel |
Modes | The device can either broadcast the data onto the CAN bus - or provide it on-request |
Standard | ISO 11898: Compliant with CAN (between 5K and 1 Mbit/s baud rates) |
Identifiers | Compliant with CAN specifications 2.0A (11-Bit ID) and 2.0B (29-Bit ID) |
Termination | Termination can be toggled via switch below DB9 connector |
Retransmission | Retransmission of frames that have lost arbitration or been disturbed by errors |
Transceiver Protection | Protection: +/- 25kV HBM ESD, +/-12kV IEC ESD, +/-14 V bus fault, short circuit |
Common mode input voltage: +/-12V | |
TXD dominant timeout (prevents network blocking in the event of a failure) | |
CONFIGURATION | |
Bit Rate | Select between standard bit rates (5K to 1M) or use custom bit-timing |
Enable/Disable | Individually enable/disable the CAN message |
Identifier Customization | Individually configure the CAN ID (11-bit or 29-bit) |
Push/Poll Mode | Individually configure 'trigger' modes for the CAN messages (push or poll) |
