mjcanfd-usb-1x

While it may not be technically spring outside, it is spring for product announcements here at mjbots, and I’m excited to announce the next evolution of CAN-FD adapter hardware we’re offering, the mjcanfd-usb-1x:

The major changes from the fdcanusb:

  • USB-C instead of USB micro

  • Smaller form factor - 30x18mm

  • PH3 CAN-FD connector instead of DB9

  • Less expensive, only $39

This makes the mjcanfd-usb-1x better suited for in-application deployments and just all around better as a development tool. It can be mounted down more easily, uses the same connector and pinout as moteus, and is compatible with our existing PH3 cables.

Don’t worry, the fdcanusb will still be sold for the forseeable future, for applications where you need a DB9 connector, or to replace existing fdcanusbs. Also, the developer kits for the moteus-r4, moteus-n1, and qdd100 will continue to ship with the fdcanusb for the time being, although they will switch over to the newer mjcanfd-usb-1x at some point in the not too distant future.
