Entry-level CANopen implementation introduced
The Embedded Systems Academy (ESAcademy) launched Oct. 14 its MicroCANopen, an entry-level, minimized CANopen implementation. CANopen is a networking protocol based on the Controller Area Network. MicroCANopen can be used when design engineers are uncertain if a higher-layer CAN protocol is required, or if they should independently specify a basic CAN communication system.
San Jose, CA – The Embedded Systems Academy (ESAcademy) launched Oct. 14 its MicroCANopen, an entry-level, minimized CANopen implementation. CANopen is a networking protocol based on the Controller Area Network. MicroCANopen can be used when design engineers are uncertain if a higher-layer CAN protocol is required, or if they should independently specify a basic CAN communication system. MicroCANopen is implemented as CANopen compatible, however, it doesn’t conform 100% to CANopen specifications. The compatibility allows using standard CANopen configuration tools and provides an upgrade path should the system become more complex in the future.
