FL3X Interface-S

The FL3X Interface-S is a entry bus interface.

Articel number: 3-V0862A01

The FL3X Interface-S is the entry solution of the FL3X Interface Family with a 1000BASE-T Uplink Port to the Logger or Measurement PC. It can be used with the Standard CMP or PLP Logger Protocol for the usage with a datalogger or alternatively as a full functional Interface with writing and reading ability with our Driver for Linux and Windows.

Description

Description

With the FL3X Interface family a highly variable automotive bus interface solution for Dataloggers and PCs, which supports the current and upcoming bus and network systems via pluggable physical layer modules and the usage of a FPGA.

The FL3X Interface-S has hard-wired FlexRay, CAN-HS/FD, LIN/SENT and 100BASE-T1 channels and also one FL3X Tiny3 Slot for pluggable transceiver. Because of its free mountable Tinyslot and the usage of a FPGA, it can be extended with any available or upcoming FL3X Tiny3 and communication channel.

  • 1Gbit/s Ethernet and WiFi interface

  • FL3X Tiny3 exchangeable Physical Layer slots

  • 3x SUB-D connector

  • 8-42 V

  • LEDs signal the state of the network

Advantages
  • One pluggable transceiver modules (2-6 channels per module depending on the bus system)

  • Pluggable transceiver modules available for CAN-HS, CAN-FD, CAN-FD SIC, FlexRay, LIN, SENT*, K-Line*, RS232*, SPI

  • Pluggable transceiver modules 100BASE-T1, 1000BASE-T1only for Tap mode

  • Compact form factor

  • Synchronous timestamp generation for most of the bus interfaces (resolution up to 1 µs)

  • Configurable bus termination

  • Bosch E-Ray IP core FlexRay controller

  • Bosch D_CAN IP core CAN controller

  • Bosch M_CAN IP core CAN-FD Controller

  • Intel Triple-Speed-Ethernet Ethernet controller

  • V2.1 A FlexRay protocol specification

  • V2.0 A/B CAN protocol specification

  • ISO 11898-1:2015 CAN protocol specification

  • Bosch CAN-FD specification 1.0

    * API possible but not available at the moment

CAN-HS / CAN-FD*

  • Silent mode useable for listening without bus interference

  • Configurable TX-acknowledges

*no ACK Flag, no Bus Errors

FLEXRAY*

  • Asynchronous monitoring mode allows listening without FlexRay-Synchronicity

  • Chronological correlation of bus messages with one timestamp base

*no state messages available, no bus states, no error messages, no bus symbols, no CC State
