Abstract

The invention discloses a gateway of communication between Ethernet for control and automation technology (EtherCAT) and CAN, and a communication method thereof. The gateway comprises an EtherCAT protocol controller, an EtherCAT PHY, an ARM central controller, a CAN bus controller and a CAN bus transceiver. The ARM central controller is respectively bi-directionally connected with the EtherCAT protocol controller and the CAN bus controller. The EtherCAT protocol controller is bi-directionally connected with EtherCAT industrial Ethernet through the EtherCAT PHY. The CAN bus controller is bi-directionally connected with CAN bus through the CAN bus transceiver. In the invention, data exchange between the EtherCAT protocol controller and the CAN bus controller can be realized through the ARM central controller; an interconnection problem of the communication between the EtherCAT real-time industrial Ethernet and the CAN bus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microprocessor-based gateway for data conversion between real-time industrial Ethernet EtherCAT and CAN bus and a communication method thereof, belonging to the field of industrial automation control. Background technique [0002] With the increasingly popularization of real-time industrial Ethernet technology, the Ethernet technology used for office and information automation began to gradually extend downwards, and was directly applied to the automation control of field devices. [0003] EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control and Automation Technology) is a real-time, high-speed Ethernet communication protocol for industrial automation. It has the characteristics of large transmission capacity, fast transmission speed, high clock synchronization, low implementation cost, and good openness. It has been used as a standardized technology and is part of the international standard IEC / PAS62407 and ISO1574-4. EtherCAT uses full...
