AM2632: EtherCAT hardware MCU Support.

Austin Trudeau

Part Number: AM2632

Does AM2632 feature code E support the EtherCAT Beckhoff SSC example for production use, or is the F variant required?

I believe all is needed is the EtherCAT hw accelerator to run the Beckhoff SSC as both master and slave, please help confirm.

Yes E variant will work if only Ethercat is required.

Thank you Anand (6748034). Is there any concern with slave or master EtherCAT control with the E part? We are planning to use the following - AM2632CNEFHAZCZR

No Austin,

No concerns for either slave or ethercat master, Are you using CPSW or ICSS based EThercat master, I am assuming CPSW right?

Thank you for confirming, currently we are just doing PRU ICSS based EtherCAT slave implementation. Maybe in the future we would use a master but not in the current design.
