PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X: EtherCAT supporting processors

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3359, AM3357, AM3356, AMIC110, AM3358-EP, PROFIBUS

Can you provide a list of AM335x processors which support EtherCAT. The datasheet of AM335x says 

"Programmable Real-Time Unit Subsystem and Industrial Communication Subsystem (PRU-ICSS)
– Supports Protocols such as EtherCAT®,"

It gives the impression that all AM335x with PRU-ICSS co processor supports EtherCAT. However, if we filter the AM335x with EtherCAT perihpheral, only AM3357 and AM3359 support EtherCAT.

Can you clarify which AM335x supports EtherCAT.

  • Hi Jagbir,

    Yes you are correct, the only part numbers that support EtherCAT are AM3357 and AM3359. 

    PRU-ICSS Co processors  are only on Part numbers AM3356/7/8/9 and AMIC110 and AM3358-EP that supports Ethernet, Profibus, Profinet Protocols.

    Attached is the screenshot.

    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards,

    Suren
