Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN
Hello Hercules Team,
I am looking for TCP/IP stacks for the TMS570/RM4x devices. On this TI website:
http://www.ti.com/microcontrollers/hercules-safety-mcus/tools-software.html
it says:
"Connectivity and Middleware
Lightweight IP TCP/IP Stack Example The Open Source lwIP 1.3.2 TCP/IP stack has been ported to the HALCoGen Ethernet MAC driver in this example that leverages the full-featured Ethernet interface of the Hercules MCUs. The integrated application demonstrates a webserver application on a Hercules Safety MCU."
QUESTION: Where is the lwIP stack and the example? There is no link.
------------------
[Post-note, 10:04AM EDT 2018Apr25, ALTER]: I found the lwIP example. There is a link to it inside Halcogen. It is located here:
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/HALCoGen_Ethernet_Driver_and_lwIP_Integration_Demonstration
------------------
There are also a number of 3rd party Ethernet stacks listed, such as from Wittenstein and Micrium. Previously on this webpage it says "All Hercules software is royalty-free and is licensed to support easy adoption into customer projects."
QUESTION: Is the third party software really free of charge, or is there a one-time buy or something like that (if no royalty)?
Thank you,
David
