We’re happy to announce that our Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN (EAN: 73-30130-00965-3) is now available. It’s the world’s first hybrid CAN/LIN communications device to enable on-the-fly switching between CAN/LIN, CAN/CAN and LIN/LIN buses.

If you’ve been waiting for it to launch, you can buy it now or contact us for more info immediately.

Designed to Make Life Easier for Automotive Engineers

Modern automotive engineering often involves a mix of protocols. You could be working on climate controls over the LIN protocol one moment, and traction control over the CAN protocol the next. In the past, this meant switching devices as you switched protocols.

Today, the Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN offers on-the-fly switching between CAN and LIN communications. A dual-channel device, the Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN offers two 9-pin D-SUB connectors that can be configured as CAN/CAN, CAN/LIN or LIN/LIN channels.

Beyond these groundbreaking capabilities, the Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN offers the same advanced capabilities that you can expect from our hardware. This includes instant-on configuration as well as universal standards compatibility with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000, DeviceNet and Kvaser’s universal API. Plus, the Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN is CAN FD-ready, with up to 5 Mbit/s when operating in CAN mode with the proper physical layer.

And finally, we stand behind the Kvaser Hybrid 2xCAN/LIN with a two-year warranty and free technical support.
