Hongke Solution | Automotive CAN/LIN bus data acquisition solution

1. Automobile bus data collection

1. What is automotive bus data acquisition?

Automotive bus data acquisition refers to the acquisition of data from various electronic control units and sensors in the vehicle, which can be used to monitor, analyze and control various systems and functions of the vehicle.

In modern cars, many different types of sensors and controllers are used to monitor and control various aspects such as the engine, transmission, chassis, safety system, etc. These sensors and controllers exchange data through the bus system, and automotive bus data acquisition is to obtain information from these buses.

2. What is the importance of vehicle data collection and testing?

Vehicle data collection and testing is one of the core links in the automotive manufacturing industry.

● Ensure vehicle operating performance: Vehicle manufacturers and R&D teams need to fully understand the operating status of the vehicle under different working conditions to ensure the quality, safety and performance of the vehicle.

● Testing and verification of automotive subsystems: During the vehicle development process, it is necessary to test and verify various subsystems of the vehicle, including the engine, transmission system, suspension system, safety system, etc.

● Industry regulatory certification requirements: Vehicle data collection is a necessary condition for meeting regulatory standards and industry certification.

2. Hongke Solution

The automotive CAN/LIN bus data acquisition solution proposed by Hongke is based on PEAK's high-performance PCAN and PLIN devices, helping you achieve reliable and efficient vehicle data acquisition and analysis, and providing strong support for your innovative projects.

● Data collection for traditional vehicle networks: Hongke provides data collection solutions for traditional vehicle networks such as CAN, CAN FD, and LIN

● PCAN device and board connect ECU and PC/industrial computer: connect the PCAN device to the vehicle or a separate ECU, and the other end is connected to the PC or industrial computer through USB or PCI, PCIe and other boards

● Supporting software and secondary development API: Through the supporting host computer software and API interface, the collection and analysis of vehicle communication can be realized

3. The role of PCAN equipment in vehicle data collection and testing

As a high-performance CAN bus interface card, PCAN devices provide a reliable solution for vehicle data collection and testing. They can read and record data on the vehicle CAN bus at high speed, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of the data. The following are the key advantages of PCAN devices in vehicle data collection and testing:

1. Efficient data collection and recording

● CAN baud rate up to 1Mbit/s, CAN FD baud rate up to 12Mbit/s
● Support ASC, TRC, CSV, BTR, MF4 format conversion

2. Provide multiple interfaces with high flexibility

● Including USB, PCI, PCIe, miniPCIe, M.2, etc.
● Single device supports 1/2/4/6 channels
● Multi-channel models can support multiple CAN and LIN inputs at the same time

3. Highly reliable data transmission

● Timestamp resolution reaches μs level
● Can be used with advanced host computer software PCAN Explorer 6, and various functions can be expanded through plug-ins, such as DBC, message playback, Plotter, graphic panel, J1939, etc.

4.Support multiple software integration and analysis

● Free API: PCAN-Basic, PCAN-XCP, PCAN-UDS, etc.
● Advanced API: PCAN-Developer 4 (up to 64 CAN channels working simultaneously)
● Programming language: C#, C++/MFC, C++/CLR, C++_Builder, Delphi, VB.NET, Java, and Python 3.x, etc.

4. PLIN devices that can be used for various LIN communication ECUs

In addition to PCAN devices, the PLIN-USB device provided by Hongke can also be used for automotive bus data acquisition. This device is a LIN to USB interface card that can be used for various ECU tests using the LIN communication protocol, such as vehicle motor drive and switch detection, and connect the LIN network to the computer via USB.

The free host computer and various extended API interfaces on the computer can also assist in LIN bus signal analysis.
