Features

The onboard microcontroller performs the protocol translation in a deterministic way and with ultra-low latency.

  • I/O Interfaces:

    • 1x CAN-FD or CAN 2.0 bus, bidirectional.
    • 2x RS232 or 1x RS485 serial port, bidirectional.
    • 1x I2C bus, 2x GPIO, or 2x PWM outputs at 5 V.
    • 1x analog input (ADC), with a range of 0 - 5 V
  • Electrical:

    • 1x power supply, 5 V.

Interfaces

NEX-FD has two sets of solder pads: the primary pads, connected to the CAN bus, and the secondary pads, connected to the actuator or peripheral.

Connector Layout

Side Pads Connected to
Primary 5 CAN-FD / CAN 2.0 bus and power supply
Secondary 8 Actuator or peripheral: RS232/RS485, I2C/GPIO/PWM and ADC


The description of each pad is detailed in the Pinout section.

Mating Connectors

NEX-FD is soldered directly to the harness wires, so no mating connector is used.
