EtherCAT SubDevice controller
Maturity plannedTargets FPGA + ASICDifficulty HardPriority 2
EtherCAT slave controller with on-the-fly frame processing on up to 3 ports, FMMUs, SyncManagers, distributed clocks and process data RAM.
Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
Interfaces
| Port | Direction | Kind | Width | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ctrl | in/out | AXI4-Lite control bus | 32 | Control and status registers, including ID, VERSION and STATUS |
| irq | out | interrupt | 1 | Interrupt request |
| mii_tx | out | parallel | 18 | |
| mii_rx | in | parallel | 18 | |
| sync | out | parallel | 2 |
Standards
- IEC 61158 Type 12
- ETG.1000
Notes
Commercial use requires EtherCAT Technology Group membership and conformance testing.
