Description

Targeted for EtherCAT slave communications, this development platform allows designers to implement real-time EtherCAT communications standards in a broad range of industrial automation equipment. It enables low foot print designs with minimal external components and with best in class low power performance.

Features
  • EtherCAT conformance tested by EtherCAT Technology Group (ETG)
  • Free ETG EtherCAT stack with free ETG membership. Compatible with other third party EtherCAT stacks.
  • Free board support package and industrial software development kit from TI
  • Support other industrial communications with the same hardware (e.g., PROFIBUS, Profinet, Ethernet/IP and more)
  • Production Ready development platform sub-system which includes schematics, BOM, user guides, application notes, white paper, software, demos and more

    • Getting Started - To get started on development review the literature below, order the development platform and download the latest SYS/BIOS Industrial Software Development Kit.
