La description

PCI****2U is a special purpose communication card that offers the connectivity of the Controller Area Network (CAN) to your PC. With its built-in CAN controllers, the PCI****2U provides bus arbitration and error detection with an automatic transmission repeat function. This drastically reduces the chance of data loss and ensures system reliability. The onboard CAN controllers are located at different positions in the memory, and you can run both CAN controllers independently at the same time. Besides, PCI****2U has a universal PCI connector, which is compatible with both new 3.3 V signaling systems and traditional 5 V signaling systems. With high-compatibility, the PCI****2U can be used in diverse systems.

Controller Area Network (CAN)
The CAN is a serial bus system especially suitable for networking “intelligent” I/O devices as well as sensors and actuators within a machine or plant. Characterized by its multi-master protocol, real-time capability, error correction, high noise immunity, and the existence of many different silicon components, the CAN serial bus system, originally developed by Bosch™ for use in automobiles, is increasingly being used in industrial automation.

Direct Memory Mapping Enables Direct Access to the CAN Controller
The PCI****2U is assigned a memory address. This is the simplest method of integrating a board in a PC and provides the quickest access since the board is treated by the PC as being standard RAM.
