Instructional objectives

Study of the information and energy systems: efficiency; reversibility; CAN bus.

Student activities

Measurements on the system: Motor speed, speed of rod extension/retraction; motor voltage and current; Hall effect sensor signals : CANH and CANL voltages, transmission speed and frame analysis.

Optional equipment : Bus CAN communication

Hands on work to:
- understand how does the bus CAN work
- measure with an oscilloscope the tension levels on CANH and CANL,
- observe the bit transmission with a CAN-PC interface and the asociated soft...
