BCM48
BCM-5646-48-1404 (BCM48)
Features Include
- Freescale MPC 5646 microprocessor
- Operating Voltage: 9-16 VDC
- Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
- 4 CAN / 4 LIN Channels / Ethernet
The BCM-5646-48-1404 functions as a communications gateway controller or general purpose automotive grade rugged controller. It uniquely has 4 CAN, 4 LIN, and embedded Ethernet as well as discrete IO. With an IP67 rating, the BCM-5646-48-1404 is able to withstand rough automotive, marine, and off-road environments. This device is Raptor programmable.

Datasheet
- BCM-5646-48-1404
CAN vs. Ethernet
Application
- CAN
- Small scale
- Great for embedded systems
- ECUs in vehicles are a great example of effective CAN usage
- Ethernet
- Large scale
- Perfect for automation and control of fabrication
- Connecting, controlling and monitoring all the machines within a factory is a great application for Ethernet
Cost
- CAN
- Low cost
- Small amount of software and hardware required
- With the small scale applications, CAN is a convenient option
- Ethernet
- Cost effective
- With ever decreasing costs Ethernet is a feasible option for large scale operations
- With the large amount of hardware and software required, which leads to unlimited custom options
Specifications
- CAN
- 1 Mbit/sec data transfer rate
- Useful integrated functions such as:
- Message collision prevention
- Error detection
- Data recovery
- Ethernet
- Up to 100 times faster than CAN communication
- With the software addons excessively available anything can be added, such as:
- Incorporated prioritization
- Data synchronization
- Error management
Recovery Procedure
- 1. Select CAN 1 and set the baud rate to 500k.
- 2. Turn the power to module off, leave WAKE_INPUT1 connected.
- 3. Click on “Flash”. The window will say “No Modules Found”.
- 4. Click on “Recover”. Select “BCM48”.
- 5. Press “Go” in the pop-up window.
- 6. Power the module on.
- 7. Exit out of the pop-up window while the broadcast recovery message is still being sent.
- 8. Raptor-Cal will detect an Unidentified UDS Module. If this is not the case, go back to step 2.
- 9. Double-click the detected module. Do not flash yet.
- 10. Wait until Broadcast signal from Raptor-Cal is done being sent. You can see this when the Bus traffic bar is at 0%.
- 11. Flash the desired .rpg.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How much current does the module sink when hibernating? How much does it sink when not hibernating?
A: When WAKE_INPUT1 is low (module is hibernating), the module draws less than 1mA. When WAKE_INPUT1 is high (module is on), it draws about 76mA.
Q: What protocol does Raptor support on BCM48
A: UDP and TCP is available on Raptor 2018A and beyond
Q: What is the hardware specification for Ethernet channel
A: 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX, Half/Full Duplex
