CAN, RS-485 and RS-232 interfaces

According to the datasheet pin assignment, the gateway has five CAN channels (CAN bus 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4); the CAN interface is 2.0 A/B (ISO 11898-2). In addition there are RS 485 (A and B) and RS232 (TX and RX) pins and, depending on the assembly options, a LIN bus pin.

Inputs and outputs

  • 9 inputs/outputs in total: 5 inputs and 4 outputs. The inputs include 1 analog input (0…11.4 V) and four digital inputs; the DI_INT_1…4 pins are frequency inputs depending on the assembly variant.
  • The digital outputs are specified for a 9-32 V switching voltage and a 0.02 – 2.5 A switching current; wire fault and short circuit diagnostics are possible via current sense.
  • There is short circuit protection against GND and UB; the latch-off of the internal overtemperature protection can be realized by the software application.

Processor and housing

The datasheet names the S9S12XEP384 as ECU: 384 KB flash, 24 KB RAM and 4 KB EEPROM. The housing uses .070 Multilock 18P and 12P connectors and weighs 110 g.

Which gateway?

If you do not need five CAN channels, see the MRS Micro Gateway 32-bit with its 2 x CAN bus + 2 x LIN Master or 2 x I/Os variants. For other products: MRS Electronic, Control units.
