Project: June 2015 – July 2015 (2 months)
Description
Planning and creating of the firmware for a CAN repeater (quasi-repeater) as a plug replacement for sensor data acquisition in tunnel construction machines. CAN messages are converted to UART to transmit them via an air gap using a FSK modem. To supply the sensors in the drill head, the coupler provides 500mA of current.
