FlexRay and CAN devices and networks feature 14 new high-performance PCI- and PXI-based interfaces.

National Instruments (Austin, TX) has announced NI-XNET CAN and FlexRay embedded network interfaces, which help engineers working in industries such as automotive and aerospace quickly prototype, simulate and test next-generation FlexRay and controller area network (CAN) devices and networks. Features include:

• 14 new high-performance PCI- and PXI-based interfaces.
• A universal API for rapid application development.
• A single API for both CAN and FlexRay networks and devices so that the same software can run on either network without rewriting code.
• A bus monitor utility, which makes it possible for engineers to quickly view, log and diagnose bus data for simplified troubleshooting.
• Available in PCI and PXI formats.
• 2 FlexRay interfaces and 12 CAN interfaces.
• Available in one- or two-port versions.
• NI device-driven DMA technology.
