Four Galvanically Isolated CAN FD Channels
Modern vehicle networks continue to grow in complexity, with CAN FD enabling larger payloads and significantly higher data throughput than traditional CAN. CANary FD is designed specifically for these environments, providing four galvanically isolated CAN FD channels that allow engineers to communicate with multiple vehicle networks through a single compact interface.
Galvanic isolation helps protect both the connected PC and vehicle electronics from electrical noise and ground potential differences, providing dependable communication whether testing on a laboratory bench, in a development vehicle, or on a production line. At the same time, full backward compatibility with CAN 2.0B allows CANary FD to support both modern and legacy vehicle platforms without changing hardware.

One Interface Throughout the ECU Development Process
CANary FD is more than a CAN interface. It supports the complete communication workflow engineers rely on throughout ECU development, from initial calibration through final validation and troubleshooting. By supporting CCP, XCP, diagnostic communication, and CAN monitoring, the interface allows engineers to work within a single hardware platform instead of switching between multiple communication devices.
Whether working in development, validation, manufacturing, or service environments, CANary FD helps create a consistent workflow from start to finish.
Built for Wherever Development Happens
Vehicle development rarely happens in one place. Engineers move between laboratory benches, development vehicles, manufacturing facilities, and customer locations, often within the same project. CANary FD's compact design and USB connectivity make it easy to deploy wherever reliable CAN FD communication is needed, allowing the same interface to support every phase of vehicle development.
-
Development Vehicles - Road testing, ECU development, and in-vehicle validation.
-
Laboratory - Bench testing, prototype development, and hardware validation.
-
Manufacturing - Production support and end-of-line verification.
-
Field Service - Troubleshooting, diagnostics, and on-site engineering support.
Ready for Modern CAN FD Networks
As vehicle electronics continue to evolve, engineers increasingly need tools capable of supporting CAN FD while remaining compatible with existing vehicle platforms. CANary FD bridges that transition by combining modern CAN FD communication with full support for traditional CAN 2.0B networks.
Instead of maintaining separate interfaces for different vehicle generations, engineering teams can standardize on a single platform that supports both today's development programs and existing legacy systems.
Native Integration with ATI VISION Software
CANary FD is designed to work seamlessly with ATI VISION Calibration and Data Acquisition Software, extending familiar calibration and communication workflows into modern CAN FD vehicle networks. A simple USB connection provides immediate access to the tools engineers already use every day, eliminating unnecessary setup and reducing time spent configuring hardware.
Instead of moving between separate communication, monitoring, and calibration utilities, engineers can perform these activities from within one software environment, improving efficiency while simplifying deployment across development teams.
