Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/WS-14882:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description RS485 CAN HAT for Raspberry Pi, Allows Stable Long-distance Communication RS485 CAN HAT for Raspberry Pi Allows Stable Long-distance Communication between Raspberry Pi and other devices Comes with online development resources and manual ## ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-1_960_189145f653d.jpg) Features at a glance - Standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO extension header, supports Raspberry Pi series boards - CAN function, onboard CAN controller MCP2515 via SPI interface, onboard transceiver SIT65HVD230DR - RS485 function, controlled via UART, half-duplex communication, supports automatic TX/RX control without programming, onboard transceiver SP3485 - Onboard 120O terminal resistor for RS485 and CAN interfaces, enabled via DIP switch - Onboard TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor), effectively suppress surge voltage and transient spike voltage in the circuit for RS485 transceiving, lightningproof & anti-electrostatic - Reserved control header, allows working with other control boards - Comes with online development resources and manual (examples in wiringPi/python) ## Specifications | CAN controller | MCP2515 | Operating voltage | 3.3V | |---|---|---|---| | CAN transceiver | SIT65HVD230DR | Mounting hole size | 3.0mm | | 485 transceiver | SP3485 | Dimension | 65×30mm | Designed for Raspberry Pi Series Standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO Header, Customized For Raspberry Pi Series Boards ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-3_960_22029088412.jpg) Expand CAN and RS485 functions CAN: onboard CAN controller MCP2515 via SPI interface, with transceiver SIT65HVD230DR RS485: controlled via UART, half-duplex communication, onboard transceiver SP3485 ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-5_960_2388323ee1e.jpg) Onboard Transient Voltage Suppressor effectively suppress surge voltage and transient spike voltage in the circuit for RS485 transceiving ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-7_960_22202dbff65.jpg) Pin Definition ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-9_960_228928c22c5.jpg) Product show ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-13_960_1028182cc0d.jpg) Outline dimensions ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RS485-CAN-HAT-11_960_16421741f0d.jpg) ## Documents - Wiki \* Resources for different product may vary, please check the wiki page to confirm the actually provided resources. ## Quick Overview It is recommended to purchase [USB TO RS485](https://core-electronics.com.au/industrial-usb-to-rs485-converter.html) or [USB-CAN-A](https://core-electronics.com.au/usb-to-can-adapter-model-a-stm32-chip-solution-multiple-working-modes-multi-system-compatible.html) at the same time for easy testing. 1.
