Until now, the manufacturer’s drivers, APIs, and software were built for Windows computers with x86 and x64-based processors. With Windows 11 it is possible to emulate x86 and x64 applications on ARM64-based computers. However, the emulation ends with the drivers.
PEAK-System has converted various drivers and services for ARM64. Especially the CAN and LIN device drivers for USB interfaces like the PCAN-USB are essential since the USB port is the primary available interface on ARM64-based computers.
In addition, the company has adapted software and programming interfaces for ARM64. With the APIs PCAN-Basic and PLIN-API, ARM applications can thus be enhanced with a connection to the CAN or LIN bus.
Detailed information on Windows on ARM support for PEAK System products can be found on the company’s website.
