Detailed Product Overview

The HIOKI SP7001-90 CAN Sensor Set enables non-intrusive measurement of CAN and CAN FD signals in long-term or in-vehicle testing environments. It combines the SP7001 non-contact CAN sensor, a pair of SP9200 screw-type signal probes, and the SP7100 CAN interface to provide stable and vibration-resistant signal acquisition without modifying vehicle wiring. Using capacitive coupling, the two SP9200 probes are fixed onto the insulated CAN H and CAN L lines to detect differential signals through the cable sheath. This method enables accurate, real-time signal acquisition without galvanic contact or interference with the circuit, eliminating the need for wire stripping or connector access and minimizing the risk of short circuits, connector wear, and induced noise. Because the sensor does not alter bus characteristics, it avoids triggering ECU lockouts, allowing safe observation of communication within fully assembled vehicles. 

Screw type probes and Vector compatibility 

The screw-type design of the SP9200 ensures a secure and vibration-resistant connection, making the configuration particularly suitable for long-term or in-vehicle testing where reliable signal acquisition is required.

The SP7100 CAN interface reconstructs the detected signal and outputs it through a 9-pin Dsub connector compatible with Vector Informatik interfaces and the HIOKI PW4001 Power Analyzer. This allows direct connection to CAN analysis tools or to the PW4001 without additional adapters. Powered via a 10 to 30 V DC supply, the SP7100 provides two input channels, allowing simultaneous monitoring of up to two independent CAN buses. Communication speeds from 125 kbit/s to 3 Mbit/s (CAN / CAN FD) are supported, with a typical delay of 130 ns, maintaining precise timing and waveform integrity even for highspeed CAN FD.

In the SP7001-90 set, one SP7001 sensor and one pair of SP9200 probes are included, allowing measurement of a single CAN bus. The second input can be used by adding an additional SP7001 and either an SP9200 screw type or SP9250 clamp type probe set.

Power analysis with PW4001

When connected to the HIOKI PW4001 Power Analyzer, the SP7001-90 provides CANbased voltage data synchronized with current measurements from external current sensors. This configuration enables accurate power calculation on high-voltage systems without direct connection to battery terminals, improving operator safety and test efficiency. To interpret or decode CAN data, the user must provide a DBC (Database Container) file containing the identifiers and scaling parameters of the required signals. The PW4001 uses this information to extract the correct voltage value from the CAN data stream and combine it with the simultaneously measured current for precise power analysis.

The SP7001-90 can be used independently with Vector-compatible systems or other CAN analysis tools. In combination with the HIOKI PW4001 Power Analyzer, it forms a safe, fast, and reliable solution for non-intrusive CAN signal acquisition and power analysis throughout the automotive development process.
