Evaluation kit allows for simple industrial Ethernet setup
Renesas has announced the availability of its 'Connect it! - Ethernet R-IN Solution Kit', an evaluation tool for industrial Ethernet networking. The kit, based on IAR’s KickStart Kit for Renesas’ R-IN32M3-EC industrial Ethernet communication chip, includes all the hardware and software components system manufacturers need to set up industrial Ethernet slave networks.
The kit includes IAR EWARM evaluation CD, I-jet Lite debugger, free RTOS and TCP/IP stack, BSP and sample projects. A documentation and tutorial video is also offered, as is access to evaluation versions of major industrial Ethernet stacks from the Renesas partner network.
According to Renesas, the R-IN32M3 series significantly improves industrial Ethernet network performance with optimised hardware accelerators, while reducing costs by supporting multiple protocols such as EtherCAT, CC-Link IE, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, CANopen and others from a single device. It can be used for real-time network communication in gateways, I/O controllers, PLCs/PACs, embedded controllers, industrial drives and multiple other networked applications.
The turbo real-time technology embedded in the R-IN32M3 series ensures real-time performance up to application level, with outstanding performance per watt.
This means that the R-IN solution provides exceptional real-time response and Ethernet processing capabilities, as well as impressive low power performance. Due to the pre-integration of major industrial Ethernet stacks by members of the Renesas partner network, system integrators are able to commence designs immediately.
