The PC104 electronics is completed by a Quad-port CAN bus interface realized specifically for iCub (called CFW-001 card) which comprises:

  • Four CAN bus ports
  • Two Firewire ports
  • Audio amplifier

The CFW-001 design and manual are in the CVS repository.


The major components of the CFW card are:

  • CAN chip: SJA 1000, (see data sheet here)
  • PCI-bridge: PLX chip (see data sheet here)
  • Firewire: Texas (see datasheet here)
  • Amplifiers (see datasheet here). For two electret condenser microphones see here


More information

  • The CFW-001 card is part of a wider set of components that provides a Pentium CPU to the iCub (embedded).
    The table below reports the details. See the bill of materials for exact quantities.
