Press Release Summary:
InfiniiVision 4000 and 3000T X-Series support ISO CAN FD (controller area network with flexible data rate) decoding and triggering capabilities to help debug ISO 11898-1 standard CAN FD as well as non-ISO CAN FD protocol. Waveform and decode update rates increase probability of capturing random and infrequent errors. Oscilloscopes also provide CAN FD error triggering and analysis, including ability to decode, totalize, and trigger on specific errors (optionally filtered by frame ID).
Original Press Release:
Keysight Technologies Introduces ISO CAN FD Triggering, Decode Option for InfiniiVision Oscilloscopes
Capabilities Improve Engineers' Efficiency in Debugging CAN FD Protocols
SANTA ROSA, Calif.
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today introduced ISO CAN FD (controller area network with flexible data rate) decoding and triggering for its InfiniiVision 4000 and 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes. The new capabilities improve engineers' efficiency in debugging the ISO 11898-1 standard CAN FD, as well as the original non-ISO CAN FD protocol.
CAN FD is the next-generation, higher-performance serial bus protocol for automotive control and diagnostic applications. It allows engineers to reduce bus loads and increase throughput for today's demanding automotive applications. With "classic" CAN 2.0, transmission rates are limited to 1 Mbps because of the event-driven nature of this serial bus. With CAN FD, transmission rates increase during the data phase of each frame and maximum specified payload sizes are increased from 8 bytes up to 64 bytes. Moving from CAN 2.0 to CAN FD technology offers an easier and more seamless migration path compared with adopting other time-triggered serial bus protocols such as FlexRay.
With the higher data rates of CAN FD, using an oscilloscope to test and debug the signal integrity (physical layer) of these higher-speed signals is critical. Keysight's new CAN FD triggering and decode capabilities in the InfiniiVision 4000 and 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes rely on hardware-based decoding to enable the industry's fastest decode update rates. Faster waveform and decode update rates increase the scope's probability of capturing random and infrequent errors. Detection and elimination of bus errors during the design phase is crucial for automotive safety.
In addition to the ability to quickly capture infrequent bus errors with hardware-based decoding, 4000 and 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes provide the industry's most extensive CAN FD error triggering and analysis. This includes the ability to decode, totalize and trigger on specific errors (optionally filtered by frame ID) such as stuff-bit errors, form errors, CRC errors, acknowledge errors and error frames.
Additional information about the CAN FD option for the InfiniiVision 4000 and 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes is available at http://www.keysight.com/find/scopes-auto. Product images are available at www.keysight.com/find/DSOX4AUTO_images.
Keysight's complete oscilloscope portfolio includes instruments with a variety of form factors with bandwidths from 20 MHz to 90 GHz.
The ISO 11898-1 CAN FD specification from the International Organization for Standardization is available at www.iso.org/iso/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=63648.
U.S. Pricing and Availability
The DSOX4AUTO option for CAN, CAN-dbc, CAN FD and LIN triggering and decoding is priced at $1,530. DSOXT3AUTO is priced at $1,100. Customers who already own a Keysight 4000 or 3000T X-Series oscilloscope with the DSOX4AUTO or DSOXT3AUTO option can upgrade their oscilloscopes at no charge with the latest firmware to enable ISO CAN FD support.
The entry-level price of a Keysight InfiniiVision 3000T or 4000 X-Series oscilloscope licensed with either of these options is $4,450 and $7,150 respectively.
