CAN FD interfaces now
available
The latest enhancement to the CAN standard is CAN
FD
in which the data segment of the CAN message is
transmitted at up to 10 times faster than the 1Mbit rate
of CAN 2.0B.
For details of CAN FD see our
Updated Tutorial
Both single and double CAN channel USB FD interfaces
and PCI are now available from Peak.
See our CAN FD page
For "everyday use" our low cost
CAN-USB 2.0B
interface is now only £165.00
Peaks 120 page Catalogue of CAN interfaces, Modules
and Software is available but be warned its a

CPU Support and features are as for the Cyclone Universal
with the following enhancements :-
-
USB 2.0 link now supports
"High-speed" protocol (up to 480Mb/sec link to the PC).
-
1 Gbyte internal memory, no
practical limit to # of images held.
-
SDHC Port for even more space.
-
For most recent CPUs ( e.g.
Cortex M0-4, Qorivva,
HC16/683xx, Coldfire and
MPC5xx/8xx ) a variant of the
communication link to the target is provided that increases
the download speed to a max of 25Mb/sec giving up to 5 x
faster download of data.
-
Additional security features
include ensuring that if you outsource your production no
one can "run off a few units" without you knowing.

USB Universal On Chip Debugging
Interface
The USB Multilink Universal On-Chip-Debugging cable supports most
NXP/Freescale
chips and with suitable software can be used for Flash
Programming and Debugging embedded target systems. It
works with JTAG, SWD and BDM On-Chip-Debugging
protocols.
If you are unfamiliar with the use of "On-Chip-Debugging" we have a
short tutorial
It support these NXP/Freescale
architectures:- Cortex M4 (see above) , Kinetis (JTAG and SWD), ColdFire V1, +V1 and
V2 - 4 , Qorivva MPC55xx/56xx/57xx, HC(S)12(X), S12Z, HCS08, RS08 and DSC series.
Includes are ribbon cables for all supported
architectures
Fast, hassle-free USB 2.0 communications
interface
Draw their power directly from the USB
port – no external power supply needed
Multi-voltage support for targets ranging
from 1.6 to 5.25 Volts
Auto-frequency detection for HC(S)12(X), HCS08
+ trimming capabilities for HCS08 devices.
Generates programming voltage on RESET line for RS08
devices.
For more details.
Aside from supporting a wider
range of chips ( add 68K,HC16, PX & PPC 5xx/8xx) a major attraction of the
Universal FX version is
that for Synchronous architectures such
as the Kinetis, Qorivva, Coldfire V2-V4, 683xx, HC16, Power
Architecture PX Series and the DSC the communications can run at 4 to 10
times faster than the older Multilink interfaces giving faster downloading
of code and uploading of debug information.

Do you need to quickly become knowledgeable about a CPU
family or Embedded USB, CAN or TCP/IP or On-Chip
Debugging ?
If so we
have prepared a series of short Technology Tasters to
get you up to speed with the Micros, Standards and jargon.
We hope you will find them informative.
For each Microprocessor chip family (over
100
are listed) our Supported Chips Directory shows all the
software and hardware available for developing
applications for that family.

Price
Price is always part of any engineering decision so we have
always tried to publish prices along with our technical literature.
Those items which are normally supplied from stock have their
price held on our web shop - you can move back and forward to
look at technical information without loosing the contents of
your shopping basket. The
prices shown on the web shop are for cash with order purchase within
the UK for a wide range of products that are normally available
for same/next day ship following day delivery or at worst on a 5
to 10 day turnaround and
the web site prices do not include VAT (20%) or shipping.
Prices shown on the web site that are sourced from companies in
the EU and US may regrettably be out of date given the fast moving
exchange rate variations of the current economic climate - call
for up to date prices.
Prices for international purchases are essentially the same but additional costs must be covered and the paperwork
is more complex. Follow this link for details of
International
Purchase conditions. The Universal Currency Converter™ comes to you by kind permission of those nice people at Xenon Laboratories. It is supplied as a guide to exchange rates and neither Xenon nor Computer Solutions make any guarantees as to it's accuracy.
About us
Computer Solutions Ltd or COMSOL for short has been in business for
over 38 years selling embedded development tools and working on consultancy projects. During this time our consultancy activities have ranged from designing true single chip applications to
one system which has over 7,000 linked microprocessors (and that
was before the days of the internet).
We like a technical challenge and many of the products described on this site have come onto our books as the result of responding to a clients need. So if you don’t see the answer to your embedded design problem on the site, drop us an email or give us a call and we will try to find you the tool you are looking for.
