Spotlight: Komodo CAN Duo Interface
|
 |
I searched high and low for a CAN interface that would meet all of our needs. This is the only one I found with built-in GPIO and, more importantly, D9 headers AND terminal blocks on the same unit (if you run your CAN bus over media other than a D9-terminated cable, this will save you having to build a break-out cable). Finally, its price was also in line with other CAN interfaces that have Linux support.
ADDITIONAL PROS:
- Their tech support is responsive to questions - same day response so far.
- The documentation is good.
- The API is good. Comes with example programs, including a loop-back test that allows you to verify the device is working on your system without involving any of your own CAN-based designs.
- Dropped into Linux in 20 seconds and just worked.
