Hi Athujith,
The AM2432 MCU+ SDK currently only supports the following Industrial communication protocols:
EtherCat, EthernetIP, Profinet and IO-Link.
AFDX is not supported at this point.
AM243x does have the Giga bit Ethernet support through CPSW or the PRUSS-ISCCG and up to 4 800Mhz R5F cores, so it is capable implement the new communication protocol like AFDX.
Best regards,
Ming
Hi Ming,
Thanks for the reply. So with a custom software is it possible to implement the AFDX?

Hi Ming,
Thank You for your confirmation and it would be great if you clarify our following doubts,
Hi Ming,
Thank You for your response, we have few more following doubts before finalizing the Software based AFDX end point design using AM243X,
Hi Senthilkumar,
Regarding 1, the answer is yes enet-lld has the support for raw layer 2 packets. we have enet_layer2_cpsw example for it.
Regarding 2, the answer is yes too. There many timers can be used to generate 0.5ms for any of the 5 cores (5 R5F, 1 M4F)
Best regards,
Ming
