CANcoder®- CAN Bus Magnetic Encoder

The CANcoder® streams high-resolution rotary position and velocity data straight over your CAN network. Built to support CAN 2.0 and high-speed CAN FD, this magnetic encoder connects natively into Phoenix 6 and Phoenix Pro software for instant, low-latency mechanism tracking.

Available in 3 variants:

• Standard (unwired): Unpopulated PCB for custom leads.
• Wired: Factory-soldered CAN and power wires.
• Molex SL: Pre-terminated connectors for plug-and-play integration.

Key Features

• Rotary magnetic encoder with high-resolution position and velocity feedback
• Supports CAN FD and CAN 2.0 communication protocols
• Compatible with Phoenix 6 software and Phoenix Pro licensing for advanced motor feedback
• Wired version includes pre-soldered power and CAN bus connections with color-coded twisted pairs
• ESD protection up to 30 kV
• Compact, durable design for robust performance in competitive robotics and industrial automation

Product Benefits

• Accurate Motion Feedback: Enables precise motor control, drivetrain tuning, and sensor integration for FRC and custom robotics projects.
  
• Flexible Integration: Standard or wired versions allow easy adaptation to diverse mechanical layouts and control systems.
  
• Phoenix Pro Compatibility: Seamless integration with CTRE software unlocks advanced monitoring, data logging, and motion control features.
  

Reliable Performance: Low current draw, ESD protection, and robust construction ensure consistent operation in high-demand robotics and automation environments.

Wired CANcoder® Specifications

The wired version of this product comes with power & CAN wires already soldered to the board. There are three sets of twisted pairs soldered to the board (1 for power and 2 for CAN bus). More information on the wires can be found in the table below

Technical Specifications

NOTE: Some Fall 2022 Units have a housing bottom with a tab that is too long. See Section 6.1 of the CANcoder User's Guide for the recommended fix.
