Abstract: EtherCAT is one of the widely used field buses in the industrial control field. The slave controller ESC (EtherCAT Slave Controller) is the key to implementing EtherCAT protocol data communication in slave modules. Achieving autonomous control over slave control chips is an important foundation for the localization and research and development of industrial control … Read more
01 EtherCAT Master Performance Testing Generally, EtherCAT master performance testing focuses on the communication cycle of the master, whether the cycle time is stable, and how much jitter there is. Therefore, tests can be set under different cycle times, such as 2ms, 1ms, 500us, 250us, 125us, etc. to test the jitter. Third-party packet capture tools, … Read more
