VN1600 - Network Interfaces with USB for CAN / CAN FD, LIN, K-Line, J1708 and IO

The VN1600 interface family provides a flexible and fast access to CAN / CAN FD and LIN networks.

While the VN1610/VN1611 with 2 channels focuses on minimum size and weight, the VN1630A / VN1640A with 4 channels is designed for flexibility and IO support.

The newest VN1670 interface now offers a solution for up to 15 channels for higher flexibility and optimal network access.

The VN1630 log provides additional recording functionality.

VN1630 log

VN1600 devices provide the best bus interface for Vector tools such as CANoe, CANalyzer, CANape, Indigo, vFlash as well as customer applications; in the laboratory, at the test bench, at the service garage or in the vehicle.

The application areas range from simple bus analysis to complex remaining bus simulations, diagnostic, calibration and flash programming tasks.

The product’s multi-application support makes it possible to access multiple programs in parallel on one device and on the same channel.

The VN1630 log provides additional recording functionality for CAN / CAN FD and LIN.

Flexible FPGA-based CAN and LIN implementation allows 100% bus load on all channels
Performing LIN 2.1 conformance tests with CANoe (VN1630A / VN1640A / VN1630 log / VN1670)
Fast baudrates: CAN (max. 2 Mbit/s), CAN FD (max. 8 Mbit/s) and LIN (up to 115,2 kBit/s, depending on wiring higher bitrates are possible)
The integrated IO functionality of the VN1630A / VN1640A makes it possible to synchronously acquire signals along with CAN / LIN messages and switch loads up to 500 mA via a digital output
For weight and space savings, the VN1610 / VN1611 / VN1630A / VN1630 log have integrated CAN High-Speed transceiver(s). The standard D-SUB9 connector supports dual channels
Recording functionality for monitoring vehicle communication (CAN / CAN FD, LIN) with VN1630 log. Data is stored on an SD/SDHC card (up to 32 GB)
