Training - Webinars standard and customer specific as well as Inhouse Workshops

MicroControl's sophisticated I/O modules are available as highly economical serial products or may be customized to your specific requirements as development, engineering, configuration and manufacturing are Made in Germany.

All µCAN-BOX modules are equipped with a galvanically isolated CAN bus interface supporting Classic CAN and CAN FD. This standard fieldbus interface can run different protocols without hardware changes. Supported protocols include CANopen (CiA 301), CANopen FD (CiA 1301), SAE J1939 as well as vendor-specific raw‑CAN communication.

Designed for demanding field applications, the µCAN‑BOX series withstands harsh environmental conditions. With regard to the EU‑Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), we rely on a secure boot chain: The bootloader only accepts cryptographically signed firmware and verifies integrity and authenticity before execution and before each update.

The µCAN.4.ai‑BOX is ideal for precise voltage and current measurements in test benches and process automation. The µCAN.4.sg‑BOX is designed for strain‑gauge applications and addresses demanding tasks in machinery and plant engineering. The µCAN.4.ti‑BOX focuses on high‑precision temperature acquisition with RTDs and thermocouples—suited to energy, process, and building technology.

For all modules we guarantee an availability of 10 years.

Developers and engineers find protocol stacks helpful when defining interfaces. And field tested software of MicroControl provides even more advantages: This is why MicroControl‘s protocol stacks are the perfect choice:

They are most reliable: As our customer you will make use of MicroControl’s leading-edge protocol stack. MicroControl‘s presence and expertise in the BUS market guarantee central availability of protocol stacks for all current BUS systems.

They are faster: Our customizable software components are based on standard elements and sustainably improve transparency and effectivity. Precious time will be saved which will speed up your development and production processes.

They are more economical: MicroControl‘s protocol stacks set free valuable resources. They safe time for information and training, reduce sources of errors and facilitate functional control and performance.

CAN protocol stacks of MicroControl are now equipped with CANpie FD (CAN Programming Interface Environment, Flexible Data Rate). This standardized driver interface facilitates integration of various controllers.

Migration from CANopen Classic to CANopen FD is now possible at any time and only up to your entrepreneurial decision.

Long-term efficiency of this new generation of protocol stacks is a standard feature and Industry 4.0 requirements are met at the same time.

By the way: users of MicroControl's protocol stacks will benefit from our „fair partnership“: cost-saving company license (in contrast to widely-used runtime licenses) and 12 months free of charge support. A subsequent, optional maintenance agreement will contain automatic updates.

Conceptional design, development and series production of individual solutions are intrinsically tied to each other.

Conceptional design in close liaison with the customer and monitoring of self-developed solutions from prototyping to development and start of series production will provide maximum security, maximum performance, maximum benefit - and a desirable "more" compared with standard industrial solutions.

If companies want to decide on a future-proof bus technology, comprehensive advice will be needed in the early stages of the development process. We mostly start with a MicroControl workshop or webinar which will then be followed by support and advice in the research and development stage.

If the decision has been made for CANopen classic or FD, the MicroControl experts will work in close liaison with the customer to realise hardware and software for the desired application. In a following step, a prototype will be developed and manufactured – either by the customer or MicroControl. In the conceptual stage, the required technical specifications of the customer’s application are checked continually. With more than 25 years of experience in project management in a variety of industries, we will be your reliable partner for future solutions.

Our technological backgroung and expertise are based on 25 years of experience in industrial process automation. Our presence in technological associations and cooperation with universities have been an important aspects of a constructive dialogue. MicroControl benefits from a mutual exchange of information and ideas in guest lectures, seminars as well as internships and diploma theses.

Development and project management are based on current software standards. such as the open programming tool "Eclipse" and "Altium Designer" for PCB development. Efficient project management is facilitated by "Easy Redmine".

MicroControl provides quality. This statement is confirmed by regular QS audits of our customers. Only certified companies can become part of our production network. and as our long-term partners they are focussed on the timely provision of high-quality products.

With its controller unit µMIC.200 MicroControl provides an innovative control system which is capable of more than a traditional industrial control unit can offer. Based on MicroControl's wealth of experience from hundreds of individual customer projects with their specific needs and requirements the µMIC solution offers everything the user may need in practice. Also, the requirements of Industry 4.0 are met as the control unit can easily be integrated into existing IT structures.

Compared with conventional mini control units MicroControl's µMIC.200 has a wider working temperature and supply voltage range and provides higher flexibility due to customizable electronics. With its rugged metal casing it is ideally suited to work reliably in harsh environments. And all that at very favourable conditions.

μMIC control units can be programmed with Node-RED open source software or in C/C++.

Node-RED offers:

• an intuitive graphic user interface
• quick results for prompt application
• no additional local software installation
• simply use μMIC and start working
• easy and quick connection to IoT Cloud services / Industry 4.0

More demanding specifications can be realized with the C/C++ programming option.

Getting started is easy using the freely available Eclipse IDE. All the tools necessary such as editor, compilers, debuggers, ssh shell are integrated in one single programme.

The real-time Linux operating system facilitates flexible development of applications software. The µMIC.200 may be connected to any PC or Notebook through its integrated Ethernet interface. Due to its secure Linux-Kernel and VPN function (virtual private network) programmers may access the µMIC.200 from everywhere without further investments.

Our freely programmable Linux based control unit µMIC.200 is equipped with an ARM Controller which is clocked at a maximum of 1 GHz. The module provides 512 MByte RAM as well as 4 GByte Flash memory which may be extended via the microSD slot. The maximum power consumption of the modules is 4 Watts.

Equipped with eight configurable digital in-/outputs, a relay, four freely controllable LEDs and a real-time clock the µMIC.200 may be used in a multitude of different applications. Digital signals, CAN bus and RS-232 are connected to the control unit via plug-in COMBICON® connectors. All I/O modules which are equipped with CANopen interface may be connected via the integrated CANopen FD Master Library.
