This reference design accelerates the development of IO-Link controller gateways by implementing an 8- port IO-Link gateway that supports up to 400μs cycle time, COM3, 1A per port on L+, and an additional DI/DO. The design supports various Ethernet-based industrial protocols such as EtherCAT®, PROFINET®, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus® Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) using the AM261x integrated industrial communication subsystem (ICSS). The hardware design is tested and developed to meet industry- standard EMI/EMC requirements.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
