Abstract

Nowadays, EtherCAT technology is widely used in motion control and industrial automation fields. It has good performance on transmission speed and synchronization between several slave stations. In this paper, an EtherCAT slave station design method based on STM32 MCU and ET1100 chip is carried out from the view of hardware and software. This slave station’s performance of data transmission is fast and stable.
