Isolated CAN Evaluation Kit

The Isolated CAN Evaluation Kit is a demonstration and evaluation platform for creating Isolated CAN solutions. It can be used in conjunction with CAN capable EFM32 Starter Kits (STKs) like the EFM32 Giant Gecko 11 Starter Kit or the Tiny Gecko 11 Starter Kit. It simplifies the process of creating an isolated CAN solution by offering an already built and functioning platform. The board schematics are available and there are examples that can be run on the EFM32 Starter Kits to communicate via isolated CAN. The board contains one digital isolator, two CAN transceivers, a 20-pin breakout header for easy connection, many headers for debugging and evaluation, and screw terminals for the physical CAN bus.

ISOLATED-CAN-EK Board and Kit Contents:

  • CAN transceivers
  • 20-pin header for connection to MCU Starter Kits
  • Quick Start Guide

ISOLATED-CAN-EK Features:

  • 1 x  4 pin digital isolator (Si88242ED-IS)
  • Breakout points
  • Loopback jumpers for easy evaluation
  • Termination options for CAN
  • Transformer for easy power over isolation
  • Status LEDs

Enablement:

All Silicon Labs MCU or WLMCU Starter Kits can connect to the Isolated-CAN-EK board. However, only the MCUs or WLMCUs that have a CAN peripheral are function with the ISOLATED-CAN-EXP. There is example code on the SLSTK3701A. This EFM32 Giant Gecko GG11 Starter Kit is needed for full evaluation and demonstration.

Step 1: Order an MCU Starter Kit

The isolation expansion boards are made to be connected to a microcontroller kit. The isolated signals are read by the MCU. This allows for the creation of a fully functional isolation node that can transmit and receive USB or RS232/RS485.
