Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3359

Hi,

We are using ICE AM3359 Ethercat application

We are trying to store few bytes to eeprom CAT24c256w ,

 as few location is being used for ethercat application

Can any one tell me which memory loaction can used in eeprom , so that ethercat related data is not effected.

Regards,

Bindu

  • Hi, We do not use I2C EEPROM for eeprom emulation in our SDK but SPI flash. I2C eeprom is used for board detection now. So overwriting is not a good idea. Technically its possible to use I2C eeprom as ethercat eeprom. Please refer to evm documentation for eeprom layout and available free space
  • Hi,

    can you please provide the link to refer evm documentation for eeprom.

  • Hi,

    As an example layout see below link, you can see that first 78 bytes are reserved for board detection etc and remaining area can be used by application
