Other Parts Discussed in Thread: PRU-ICSS-INDUSTRIAL-SW, PROFIBUS
Hi TI,
I just have a quick clarification regarding the AM65x, as I'm in the planning stages of an industrial project for which the AM65x appears to have the right characteristics. However, I've seen on the PRU-ICSS-INDUSTRIAL-SW page, and on other forum posts (like here and here) that the AM654x only supports EtherCAT, but not Profinet, Ethernet/IP, Profibus Slave/Master, HSR/PRP, etc.
Those linked forum posts are several years old now, so I figured I'd ask if there are any plans to add those additional industrial protocols to the AM65x platform? If not I will use the AM64x instead, but the inclusion of the GPU in the AM65x makes it quite a compelling proposition for projects where an HMI or UI of some description may be required in the future.
Many thanks!
