The EtherCAT Click Board™ is a compact add-on board that provides a cost-effective solution for realizing EtherCAT device solutions on various processors over the SPI interface. This board features the LAN9252, a 2-port EtherCAT device controller with dual integrated Ethernet PHYs from Microchip Technology. Each PHY contains a full-duplex 100BASE-TX transceiver and supports 100Mbps operation. The LAN9252 supports HP Auto-MDIX, allowing the use of direct connects or cross-over LAN cables. It communicates with MCU via a synchronous device SPI/SQI interface and can operate in Digital I/O Mode, where signals can be controlled or monitored by the EtherCAT Master. This Click Board™ is suitable for industrial control, process/factory automation, hydraulic and pneumatic valve systems, power, and many more.
The EtherCAT Click is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click Board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
Software Support
MikroElektronika does not provide direct software support for the EtherCAT Click Board™ in the form of libraries, functions, or example code at this moment. The software support is provided in MPLABX by the Microchip company, with Microchip EtherCAT Harmony 3 Driver.
Microchip Harmony 3 Driver can be found on the MicrochipTech GitHub account and represents the EtherCAT software development kit designed to be integrated into any suitably powerful MCU and is used to control LAN9252. Please refer to the LAN9252 Quick Start Guide for a quick getting up and running with EtherCAT Harmony 3 Driver.
