Description for the TMDSECATCNCD379D
Real-time EtherCAT communications meet C2000™ real-time microcontroller as the Beckhoff® ET1100 EtherCAT slave controller (ESC) is combined with an 800 MIPS microcontroller. Whether used as standalone hardware in order to get familiar with the software project or used in conjunction with the DesignDRIVE IDDK for a servo example application, this two board hardware solution also comes with software drivers for the ET1100 and slave stack adaptation layer for the C28x. EtherCAT stack development assumes EtherCAT Technology Group membership for access to their stack.
