The AX58101/AX58102 is an EtherCAT SubDevice Controller (ESC) that integrates two Fast Ethernet PHYs and two MII network interfaces, supporting port 0 and port 2 swapping for flexible network topology. It supports the Local Bus and SPI Slave PDI interfaces to simplify microprocessor connection, and provide a variety of communication and control interfaces including PWM, ABZ/Hall encoder, SPI master, and digital I/O.
The AX58201(2) is interoperable with all EtherCAT systems using standard EtherCAT communication protocols such as CoE, FoE, and VoE. It is suitable for motor/motion control, digital I/O control, sensors data acquisition, robotics, EtherCAT to IO-Link gateways and EtherCAT Junction modules applications.
