Overview

Targeted for EtherCAT slave communications, this reference design allows designers to implement real-time EtherCAT communications standards in a broad range of industrial automation equipment. It enables low-footprint designs in applications such as industrial automation, factory automation or industrial communication with minimal external components and low-power performance. Although this reference design is for the TMDSICE3359, it can also be used for TMDXICE110.

Features
  • EtherCAT conformance tested by EtherCAT Technology Group (ETG)
  • Free EtherCAT Slave Stack Code (SSC) from Beckhoff available; requires ETG membership (free of charge) and valid EtherCAT Vendor ID.
  • Free board support package and industrial software development kit
  • 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
