Application 1 > Board Should work with Internal 1.5MB RAM and with External QSPI Flash.
A> Ethernet 1 MII port (Named with Label ECAT0) can be configured with TCP/IP MODBUS Master ?
B> Ethernet 2 MII port (Named with Label ECAT1) can be configured with ETHERCAT Master ?
Application 2 > Board Should work with Internal 1.5MB RAM and with External QSPI Flash. Arduino & MC Interface connector.
A> Ethernet 1 MII port (Named with Label ECAT0) & Ethernet 2 MII port (Named with Label ECAT1) can be used for Ethercat Slave & Arduino & MC Interface connector Analog/Digital GPIO ?
Hi @sarikaautomations ,
Thanks for your interest in NXP MIMXRT series!
1. A: It's recommend using J56A/J56B (RGMII ports for ETH0/ETH2) for TCP/IP/Modbus communication. Using J57A (ECAT0 port) is not advised.
B: No. The RT1180 integrates ESC, not an ECAT master.
2. Yes, this is supported.
For more detailed information, please refer to this guide: UM12450: FRDM-IMXRT1186 Board User Manual
Best regards,
Gavin
