The device should now appear under Universal Serial Bus devices as “ITEK USB-CAN Interface” or under Ports (COM & LPT) as a virtual COM port (e.g., COM5).
Abstract A concise, reliable USB-CAN driver is essential for connecting modern PCs to Controller Area Network (CAN) buses for diagnostics, testing, and embedded development. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of the ITEK USB-CAN driver: its design goals, architecture, core implementation details, performance characteristics, compatibility considerations, and practical use cases. We describe engineering trade-offs, error-handling strategies, and provide guidance for developers integrating the driver into host applications. The discussion includes benchmarking results, interoperability notes, and suggested future enhancements.

ITEK (typically referring to ITE Tech. Inc., or generic chipset identifiers found in Chinese USB-CAN interfaces) produces USB controllers that manage data translation. The specific chip converts USB signals to CAN protocol (ISO 11898) . When you plug a USB-CAN adapter containing an ITEK chip into your PC, the operating system sees a generic interface.
