Kvaser Leaf v3 OBD-II

EAN

73-30130-01430-5

Versatile interface with 16-pin OBD-II connector for accessing vehicle diagnostics and ECU data.

The Kvaser Leaf v3 OBD-II provides seamless access to vehicle diagnostics from your PC. It features a USB Type-A connector and a 16-pin OBD-II connector, offering direct access to data from the Engine Control Unit (ECU). The ECU stores diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), enabling your software to retrieve engine performance data, fuel efficiency metrics, emissions information, and system error codes via the OBD-II interface.
Capable of processing up to 20,000 messages per second, each timestamped with 50-microsecond accuracy, the Leaf v3 OBD-II is the ideal Vehicle Communication Interface (VCI), suitable for development purposes, production, after-sales and repair. It includes standard galvanic isolation for reliable and safe operation.
