Interfacing ENC28J60 with TM4C123GH6PM

TURJASU PYNE1

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TM4C123GH6PM

Dear all,

I would request some startup help in interfacing the Tiva MCU TM4C123GH6PM with the Microchip part ENC28J60. Are there any libraries available that can be downloaded ? My project is a simple communication (test) between a Tiva connected to ENC28J60 through SPI interface and the PC, where I can send some data using UDP to the tiva and it is received in the Tiva and displayed . I need some starting guide on how to interface this Ethernet module with TM4C

Hello Turjasu,

No, there is no downloadable library for this part in TivaWare. You would have to either search the forum for someone who may have done it in the past and may be willing to share, or do it by yourself and us to support you...

Regards

Amit

You're not the first to have proposed or done that - indeed that's one (I believe quite good) way to expand LX4F & TM4C into that area of communication capability. (Clients of ours have employed w/other ARM MCUs - w/success)

Somewhere here (while past) - if memory serves - I assisted someone in test/troubleshoot - your exact part mating.

Also - that (other) vendor is famed for detailed & caring App Notes - search/find - give those a good read - much useful data.

You'll need to first master the communication between your MCU and the external device. Tip here is to employ a far simpler IC (i.e. EEProm or similar) to build your understanding/confidence. Only then would I venture to your targeted IC - far more demanding & complex... (manner suggested provides you "best chance" of success - otherwise (likely) nightmare looms...)

Dear Amit,

Thanks for your reply. OK I will try to go by the datasheet of ENC28J60 and then let you know. Thanks again

Hi,

Just in case - you may be lucky - see this page:

May be buggy, but you can see what you need.
