TM4C1294NCPDT: design enquirer

Part Number: TM4C1294NCPDT


i would like to design one card it is use full .. i need below protocols 

EtherNet/IP™ Slave

■ Modbus TCP Slave

■ PROFINET Slave

■ Integrated Ethernet Switch

I need following options is it possible with TM4C1294NCPDT.

please give any alternative controller industrial automation.   

  • Hi Kota,

    From the hardware perspective, the TM4C129 contains the on-chip EMAC and PHY which conforms to the IEEE 802.3 specification. Please refer to the datasheet for details on the Ethernet features. My understanding is that the Modbus TCP and Profinet are application level protocols which makes use of TCP/IP. For example, the Modbus TCP commands and user data are encapsulated into the data container of a TCP/IP telegram without being modified. From a software perspective we do not have any library and support for Modbus and PROFINET. You will need to develop your own software or from 3rd party.
  • Might your review of "the leading, commercially available products" best meeting your requirements - prove more insightful?

    Others - perhaps w/resources equal to (or exceeding) yours - may have (already) dealt w/your requirements. (it is rarely (especially) productive to "reinvent the wheel" - thus such "investigation" proves most always - required.)

    Your request for "alternate controller" - targeting your (highly) specific needs - benefits from your casting a far, "WIDER NET" - does it not?
