Industrial communication protocols are a critical element of the modern factory, connecting factory equipment to control and management systems to improve production efficiency and lower total cost of ownership. The AM243x MCU and AM64x processor series support a number of different industrial protocols provided directly by TI or through a robust third party ecosystem. Table 9-1 summarizes the AM243x industrial protocol support while Table 9-2 summarizes the AM64x industrial communications protocol support.
