EtherCAT Development and Production Services

dresden elektroniks EtherCAT services include:

• user-specific development, prototype and serial production (up to 200,000 components per shift)
• hardware for several targets: microcontrollers (ARM, NIOSII, Infineon), FPGA (Xilinx, Altera)
• software: C++ for GNU, ARM and IAR
• software master without configurator
• hardware master for 10 µs cycle time
• slave ET 1100 / 1200
