Overview

This software development kit (SDK) includes real-time industrial communication protocols (EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, IO-Link, etc.) on TI processors. It also has PRU-ICSS firmware, drivers, communication stack libraries, and application examples, along with documentation.

What's new:

  • Ethernet over EtherCAT EoE
  • File access over EtherCAT FoE
  • Integrate NVM library for persistent data storage - EtherCAT examples now use EEPROM and not Flash memory to store EtherCAT EEPROM data
  • Ethernet/IP - object dictionary size should be possible to change without stack rebuild
  • IOLINK Controller - added NVRAM support for AM243 LP and EVM in example app

Release Information

Thank you for your interest in the AM64x Industrial Communications Software Development Kit (SDK). This software accelerates application development schedules by eliminating the need to create basic system software functions from scratch.

  • This SDK contains examples, libraries, and tools to develop RTOS-based Industrial Communication, Fieldbus, and networking applications on PRU-ICSS.
  • The exact content of the SDK depends on the capabilities of the device, but all devices share common APIs and build on existing proven software components to ensure reliability and quality.
  • The software components are fully tested to ensure that they work together with TI’s Code Composer Studio integrated development environment.

What's new

  • PROFINET RT/IRT support with Siemens ERTEC stack on TMDS64EVM
  • EtherNet/IP Inter core Network tunneling example on AM64x
  • ICSSG0 instance support for EtherCAT Stack
  • Custom PHY integration reference for DP82826 and DP83869
