VN7610

Compact and Flexible FlexRay Bus Connection

The FlexRay Network Interface VN7610 is designed for development, simulation, and testing of FlexRay networks.
The USB connection makes it universally applicable such as in laboratory environments or during test drives, while its highly compact design makes it ideal for mobile applications. In addition, the interface provides access to CAN and CAN FD bus systems.

Highlights

Simulate large networks efficiently: A 2 MB transmit send memory allows parallel configuration of more than 1000 FlexRay messages.
Autonomous FlexRay cluster startup: Enables a cold start of the FlexRay cluster without requiring an additional network node. 
Analyze startup behavior: Monitoring unit supports analysis of FlexRay network startup. 

FlexRay and CAN FD access: One FlexRay channel (A and B) with access to CAN FD bus systems. 
Minimal footprint: Very compact design for mobile and space‑constrained use cases.
