1.1 Introduction
The MPX-2515 CAN 2.0B USB card is a USB 2.0 compliant device, which
implements Controller Area Network (CAN) version 2.0B interface. This card is
made in Mini-PCIe form factor so that this module is able to insert into motherboards
that provide Mini-PCIe slot, like most Commell motherboards do. In addition, users
are able to connect this card to an USB Type A receptacle that most PC has by using
the OALUSB-H4-1 optional cable. MPX-2515 CAN 2.0B USB card provides the
following features.
