EtherCAT P is not a protocol but a technology. There is no change to EtherCAT protocol. It just adds power to the cable (similar to PoE).

Now that means Sitara EtherCAT solutions can be used with EtherCAT P but a different HW interface is required. This is more a topic for our power team I assume.

Hi Hiroyasu,

please contact the systems Factory Automation team for this. I am not involved with TI design work directly.

Hi Hiroyasu,
sorry, somehow I assumed you are aware about the TI systems teams. I will try to find someone to get in contact with you. Otherwise use your local TI contacts. This is a public forum where we can't discuss future plans anyway.
