CAN FD Repeater CRep S4IFD
Galvanic Decoupled 4 Channel CAN FD Repeater
EMS Dr. Thomas Wuensche has been offering CAN bus star repeaters for several years. The primary attribute of these devices is to enable star structures, which allow flexible realization of extended CAN networks. Further advantage is the significant reduction of segment costs, because one star repeater can replace up to four standard repeaters. In opposite to the use of standard repeaters to realize a star structure the propagation delay between two segments is lowered nearly by the factor of two because the main trunk is integrated in the device. Furthermore segments can easily be connected or disconnected without influencing the rest of the system. There are common CAN applications like the controlling of stage structures in vast concert halls, where this ability is essential.
Other star repeaters of EMS Dr. Thomas Wuensche are the CRep S8C and the CRep S10I. The CRep S8C has 8 CAN channels and up to three devices can form a cascade to offer 24 channels. The CRep S10I has 10 channels which are all galvanic decoupled from each other. Following several customer requests EMS Dr. Thomas Wuensche has developed the CRep S4IFD a CAN FD version of the reliable CRep S4 with galvanic decoupling between CAN channels and power supply. The CRep S4IFD has 4 CAN segments, which can be connected by a 3 pol terminal block. A 2 pol cable connector provides energy supply. LEDs inform about the actual system status. With this product there is the possibility to realize smaller CAN-FD or CAN systems as cost effective star structures with galvanic decoupling.
