CO15CAN KIT |15W CAN CONTACTLESS
POWER & DATA
OVERVIEW
This document guides users how to use the Co15CAN
Kit. The Co15CAN Kit includes a transmitter (Tx) and
receiver (Rx). Modules Tx and Rx are inductive couplers
that supply power without physical contact power
and data transmission providing 15 W at short range
(few centimeters). The kit allows testing the benets
of contactless connectors by enabling cable limits and
design barriers for more reliability and exibility.
APPLICATIONS
Contactless connectors open a new scene for connectivity. By eliminating the needs for physical cables or connectors.
Connection for applications in constrained and/or moving environments becomes easier. This new technology nds
applications in various industrial, defense and aeronautic applications as well as in the medical eld.
For example:
• For example, when changing tools on robots, the life cycle of the connectors is limited because the connectors can
deform or break. Contactless connectors make connection more reliable and maintenance-free.
• For example, to communicate or power a system in a harsh or enclosed environment such as in a cleanroom, wired
systems with open contacts are very expensive and weaken the system. Contactless connectors make connection
more reliable by transferring through any-non electrically conducting material including gasses and liquids without
contact or need to drill a hole.
Use cases:
• Supply power through any-non electrically conducting material
• Supply power moving electronic system
• Supply power embedded electronic system
• Enable new design (transfer through sealed enclosures)
FEATURES
• 15 W continuous power transmission
• Bi-directional data transmission
• Short range contactless connectivity
• Misalignment tolerance
• Free-movement due to no decoupling
• Used in pairs (transmitter Tx and receiver Rx)
BENEFITS
• No wear and tear
• Simplify interconnection
• No wi or bluetooth interface
• No limited by mating cycle
• Free maintenance
• Providing immunity to vibration
• Providing immunity contaminants, moistures, dust
