Using PCAN-miniPCIe FD with M.2 to mini PCIe adapter

Post by Ojas C » Fri 29. Nov 2024, 10:15

Hello,
I am planning to use 3 PCAN modules at the same time. My embedded PC has one M.2 M key where I plan to use one M.2 PCAN module. for the rest, I wanted to know if i can use a M.2 B key to mini PCIe converter to connect the miniPCIe FD board to the PC. The port is a M.2 B key PCIe x1 slot. If the PCAN modules use just 1 pcie lane then is it possible to use them in key A and E slots as well?

Any help would be appreiciated
Thank you.

Hello,

As long as you have PCIe support on the M.2 (Check the technical docs for your board) it should be possible, however please check the reviews for the converter as we cannot give any guarantees when it comes to it working with a converter. Our interfaces should work without any issues running on one lane.
