Part Number: TMDXSK437X

Hi Team,

A customer is looking for a processor that can read EnDat Encoder as a Slave system. Can TMDXSK437X be use for this application?

Hello Danilo,

It looks like AM437x is compatible with EnDat. Please see Industrial Communication Protocols Supported on Sitara Processors.

I have reassigned this to another engineer to comment on slave vs master.

Regards,

Nick

Hi Danilo,

As Nick mentioned, the AM437x is compatible with Endat. Currently only Endat master is supported on the PRU-ICSS industrial SW package, please refer to

AM437x processor is capable of supporting Endat slave though. Customers need to design his own PRU-ICSS firmware and related driver.

Garrett

Hi Garrett,

Thank you for the clarification. If the customer will create his own PRU-ICSS firmware and related driver, can he use the TMDXSK437X for EnDat slave or he needs to modify the hardware?

Danilo,

I don't think he need hardware modification with the TMDXSK437X for EnDat slave.
