Supports a comprehensive set of industrial Real-Time Ethernet protocols via modular firmware, adhering to global standards:

PROFINET IRT/RT: Compliant with IEC 61158-3-10/EN 50170, enabling cycle times as low as 125 µs (IRT) for motion control and 1 ms (RT) for general automation.

EtherCAT: Certified to ETG (EtherCAT Technology Group) standards, supporting distributed clock synchronization (≤ 100 ns accuracy) and fast process data transfer.

Ethernet/IP: ODVA-compliant, with support for CIP Sync (IEEE 1588 PTP) and CIP Motion for coordinated multi-device operations.

Modbus TCP: IEC 61158-3-14 compliant, for non-real-time data logging and device configuration in legacy and modern networks.

All protocols support cyclic process data exchange (for real-time control) and acyclic messaging (for parameterization/diagnostics), with configurable master/slave roles (except Modbus TCP, client/server).

Physical Form Factor: Ultra-compact embedded module (approx. 22 mm × 30 mm × 5 mm), designed for surface-mount (SMT) integration into custom PCBs. RoHS-compliant, lead-free package suitable for high-volume manufacturing of edge devices.

Power Requirements: Single +3.3 V DC supply (± 10%), with typical current consumption ≤ 180 mA (active mode) and ≤ 10 µA (sleep mode). Low power profile ideal for battery-powered IoT gateways or energy-constrained industrial controllers.

Integrated Memory: 128 KB SRAM (for real-time data buffering) and 512 KB Flash (for firmware/configuration storage). SRAM supports process data sizes up to 4 KB (input) / 4 KB (output) per protocol, ensuring efficient handling of high-volume automation data.

Connector Interface:

Host Interface: SPI v1.1 (Serial Peripheral Interface) with clock speeds up to 50 MHz, supporting full-duplex communication. Includes 4-wire (SCLK, MOSI, MISO, CS) and optional interrupt line for event-driven data transfer to the host MCU (e.g., ARM Cortex-M, RISC-V).

Ethernet Interface: Integrated 10/100 Base-T PHY (IEEE 802.3) with MII/RMII support. Designed for direct PCB routing to external RJ45 connectors, supporting CAT 5e/CAT 6 twisted-pair cabling. Features galvanic isolation (500 V DC, 1 minute) to protect against ground loops in industrial environments.

Certifications: UL 508 certified for industrial control equipment, CE marked for EMC compliance (EN 61000-6-2 industrial environment, EN 61000-6-4 generic immunity), and protocol-specific certifications (ETG 2.0 for EtherCAT, ODVA for Ethernet/IP). Validates safe operation in harsh industrial conditions.
