The Arduino compatible development board to test out your custom EtherCAT prototypes.
The EtherCATduino is designed to be compatible with the Arduino MEGA 2560. It has the same pinout and the same overall form factor. The EtherCATduino features a powerful ARM microcontroller, an EtherCAT interface, micro USB port and a DC input connector.
The EtherCATduino supports a custom-made Arduino library to easily interface with the EtherCAT bus. It directly supports the Beckhoff EtherCAT stack. Both the manual and the Arduino library are available below.
