EtherCAT communications development platform

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 in applications such as industrial automation, factory automation or industrial communication with minimal external components and with best in class low power performance.

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 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
