The Kvaser Leaf Light v2 represents one of the easiest and lowest-cost methods of connecting a computer to a CAN bus network. With its USB 2.0 compliant connector and 9-pin D-SUB connector, the Leaf Light v2’s sleek, ergonomically designed housing is both robust enough for everyday use and small and flexible enough to be used in space-constrained applications. Now with galvanic isolation as standard.
This product has reached End of Life status. The replacement product is Kvaser Leaf v3
Major Features
- 8000 messages per second, each time-stamped with 100 microsecond accuracy
