Hi Erich,
There are various CAN interface devices like the Vector CAN Case, the Komodo CAN Interface, etc. I am not very familiar with how these interfaces communicate with the PC over USB. Do you know the data is transmitted over USB? I will start experimenting with NXP USB examples for FRDM boards. My goal is to use a FRDM board with a CAN interface to capture CAN traffic and then send to a PC Application over USB for displaying the CAN ID and the payload. I imagine there is some data packet protocol involved in the data transmission. Do you have any projects along these lines, perhaps reading Sensor Data or Telemetry Data?
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
I have not worked with CAN recently, and I don’t have a project to share with you.
There is to my knowledge no special Can2USB protocol. Most do a simple CAN-to-Serial (UART, USB CDC) conversion. Simply capture things on the CAN side and transmit as USB CDC data to the host, and vice versa.
