AM5748: POWERLINK support

Dietmar Lang

Part Number: AM5748
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3359,

We would like to use POWERLINK slave protocol on our platform with AM5748ABZXEA (like it is described in the Data Sheet for Device type E: all industrial protocols enabled, basic protocols plus EtherCAT slave and POWERLINK slave). Operating system is TI-RTOS.

Is this supported and where can I find the relevant resources (PRU firmware, PRUSS driver, openMAC HAL, etc.)?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Dietmar,

The engineer who works on the Networking side was on leave, and responses were getting delayed.

Hi,

We recommend to contact PORT Gmbh for Powerlink protocol related support.

Hi Ashwani,

Thank you for the tip with PORT Gmbh!

I contacted them but unfortunately they support only POWERLINK on AM3359.

Do you know whether the required Powerlink PRU-firmware is somewhere else available (eg @TI) for AM5748?
And if not, do you see a realistic chance that TI-developers can port the AM335x firmware to AM574x?

Best Regards,
Dietmar

Hi Dietmar,

There is no plan to support POWERLINK on AM57x.
