Documentation accompanying the "Make My Own EtherCAT device" video serie on Youtube.

This repository contains the EtherCAT devices I have designed, built and put in use in linuxcnc.

Everything should be here: - Schematics, PCB layouts, and what is needed to build the boards. - Software tools to create an ESI-file and program the ESC eeprom. - Software tools to create the application running on a STM32F407VG. - A big learning curve is hidden in here as well

THCAD-reader+Digital-IO: common questions

What microcontroller does the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO use?

The THCAD-reader+Digital-IO is built around the STM32F407VGT6, from the STM32 family.

How big is the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO PCB?

The THCAD-reader+Digital-IO measures 112.5 × 65.6 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO?

135 components, from 52 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO design files?

From the MetalMusings/MyOwnEtherCATDevice repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with MetalMusings. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the THCAD-reader+Digital-IO without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
