CCS/LAUNCHXL-F28379D: Ethernet communication using ENC28J60 or similar

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28379D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I looking for an example code in order to connect ethernet my LAUNCHXL-F28379D board. 

I have an ENC28J60 ethernet controller with SPI interface, Can you share with me an example code for using it?

In the other hand, do you know a better way to get ethernet connected my F28379D board? 

Thanks in advance.

Guillermo. 

  • Hi Guillermo,

    We do not have an example configuring the external Ethernet interface over SPI. I believe that the existing SPI examples in C2000Ware Package can be extended for this specific SPI use case.

  • By the way, do you know a LaunchPad board with ethernet port in order to connect with LaunchXL-F28379D board ?

    I mean, a cheap board from TI, and coming with the programming example ready to go.

    The final goal is to get  the values of some variables of LaunchXL-F28379D board with ethernet connection.

  • Guillermo,

    We don't have anything specifically designed for this purpose. There is the C2000 F28M36 ControlCard (www.ti.com/.../tmdsdock28m36) which can be connected through SPI. There is an Ethernet port on this board.

    Additionally you can check out the SimpleLink MCU platform as well. These devices have a native Ethernet port. The various LaunchPads have the connector as well. I think that you should be able to communicate over SPI or another module and use the SimpleLink device as a SPI to Ethernet bridge. Here is a kit that you might be able to use. www.ti.com/.../msp-exp432e401y
