F28069 control stick with DP83630 or DP83620



Hi,

I want to use the F28069 piccolo stick for real-time Ethernet applications with IEEE1588 clock synchronization.

Until now the only two ethernet controllers which can handle it are the 2 mentioned in the title.

Unfortunatly, they are only physical controllers (so they require that the mac is either software in the mcu or a hardware which can handle them) and at the same time use MII, which isn't implemented in the F28069.

I found plenty other PHY+MAC for ethernet (SPI interface) but they can't handle IEEE1588 hardware, and a software implementation of the standard is too slow for my needs.

Could someone recommend me a solution? I'm using the stick also for 3 ADC, blinking 4 LEDs, and 2 PWM signals based on reference sine.

If I should change the controller could you recommend me one which comes with a small evaluation/development kit like the control stick.

Of I could even work directly with the microcontroller (wouldn't actually like it since that's not the purpose of my project) for as long as I could implement it on a 2 layer PCB.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Emanuel
