Forwarding CAN data via Ethernet
CAN-based networks require special cable connections. Special adapters are also required for the purpose of integrating PCs. This can sometimes incur considerable costs. To solve this problem, Kanda is offering CAN2LAN router software for the SSV embedded devices server modules, making it possible to transfer any kind of data over TCP/IP-based Ethernet LANs in a transparent way. The CAN2LAN solution involves the interconnection of two CAN netw...
Dual SIM/Smart Card Power Supply IC
Linear Technology has announced the LTC4558, a dual subscriber identity module (SIM) and Smart Card power supply IC with level translator that provides both 1.8V and 3V SIM power and digital signal level shifting in a tiny QFN package. The LTC4558 is ideal for GSM, TD-SCDMA and other 3G+ wireless applications that interface with either a 1.8V or 3V SIM or Smart Card. A channel select pin determines which channel is open for communication, while s...
