EDICcard2 is a diagnostic interface card developed by Softing company for automotive electronic equipment. It supports the standard ISO 9141(-2) interface and CAN bus protocol. EDICcard2 has its own 16-bit microprocessor and data memory, and data exchange between the application system (PC) and EDICcard2 is realized through DPRAM. EDICcard2 can be easily downloaded to EDIC hardware through PC to achieve new application purposes (such as: new communication protocol).
The EDICcard2 is a PC Card type II (PCMCIA) interface designed for automotive diagnostic use. It provides a 16‑bit controller with 312 KB RAM and a dual‑port DPRAM for data exchange between a PC and an ECU. The device supports standard automotive communication protocols such as ISO 9141‑2 and CAN (2.0A/B) and can be used in portable or desktop PCs via a PC Card slot.
Technical specifications include a 16‑bit SABC16 controller, 8 KB usable PC memory, two CAN channels with an SJA1000 controller, operating temperature from 0 °C to 55 °C, storage range –25 °C to 70 °C, and compliance with EMC standards (CE, EN 35022, EN 30082‑2, FCC Part 15). The handbook also lists connector options, pin assignments, and available accessories such as diagnostic tools and software packages. This manual is written in Chinese.
