Softing Automotive Bus Interfaces | |
![]() |
Softing provides a wide range of powerful and flexible interface systems for CAN, LIN, MOST and FlexRay. You can use a standard programming interface (API) for the Softing cards for all form factors, such as PCI, PCMCIA, WLAN, USB and Bluetooth. The interfaces can be used both with Softing tools and with customized solutions. |
Products | |
| CAN bus Interface Card: CAN-AC2-PCI | |
| Active, two-channel CAN bus PCI interface card to connect a PC to two
independent CAN networks. The card is suited both to control and
visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications.
For instance, this enables the PC to be integrated into hierarchical
network structures. For more information, please visit Softing CAN-AC2-PCI Page | |
| CAN bus Interface Card: CAN-AC2-104 | |
| Active, two-channel CAN bus PC/104 interface card to connect a PC to
two independent CAN networks. The card is suited both to control and
visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications.
For instance, this enables the PC to be integrated into hierarchical
network structures. For more information, please visit Softing CAN-AC2-104 Page | |
| CAN bus Interface Card: CANcard2 | |
Active, two-channel CAN bus PC card interface to connect a PC to two
independant CAN networks. The card is suited both to control and
visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications. For more information, please visit Softing CANCard2 Page | |
| CAN bus Interface Card: CANusb | |
Active, 1-channel CAN bus USB interface to connect a PC to a CAN
network. The interface is suited both to control and visualization
tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications. For more information, please visit Softing CANUsb Page | |

During test drives and in Manufacturing - particularly at testing and retouching stations - as well as in Service, vehicle interfaces repeatedly have to be plugged in and unplugged for the different workstations. Cable connections between the vehicle and the test tool often limit the amount of available freedom of movement. For more information, please visit Softing EDICblue Page | |
| EDICcard2 | |
| EDICcard2 is a universal, powerful hardware interface perfect for use
in precisely such cases. EDICcard2 is particularly suitable for ECU
communication in mobile use - whether using a notebook equipped with a
PC card (PCMCIA) slot or by taking the card with you to be used in the
system on site. For more information, please visit Softing EDICcard2 Page | |
| EDICflex | |
| FlexRayTM is a fast, scalable and deterministic
bus system. It allows the realization of innovative distributed control
functions as well as security critical applications. Due to its high
bandwidth it is also used as backbone in vehicle network architectures. For more information, please visit Softing EDICflex Page | |

| One of the main goals in optimizing manufacturing environments is the
permanent demand to shorten line cycles. At the same time, the increase
in the quantity of data that has to be programmed for ECUs is virtually
unstoppable. Flexible solutions for communicating with ECUs in the
manufacturing environment must be found to attain the optimizations
desired whilst maintaining quality. The prerequisite for this is the
reliable handling of ECU communication - even if communication is
taking place on several channels simultaneously. For more information, please visit Softing EDICnet Page | |
| EDICpci | |
| The use of heterogeneous bus architectures with K-line, CAN and LIN
buses is increasing in ECU applications in today's onboard vehicle
networks. This is why it is important, particularly in a manufacturing
environment, to have access to several vehicle buses simultaneously.
The safe handling of ECU communication on several channels
simultaneously is the prerequisite for ensuring the quality desired in
ever shorter process times. For more information, please visit Softing EDICpci Page | |
| EDICusb | |
| The use of heterogeneous bus architectures with K-line, CAN and LIN
buses is increasing in ECU applications in today's onboard vehicle
networks. It is therefore particularly important in the Engineering and
Manufacturing environment to have easy-to-use, flexible access to these
vehicle buses from your PC in all kinds of applications. For more information, please visit Softing EDICusb Page | |
