KIT_XMC43_RELAX_ECAT_V1 BSP

Overview

The XMC4300 microcontroller series further reduces complexity in EtherCAT implementation and cost in factory automation, industrial motor control, I/O modules and robotics. The XMC4300 series was specifically developed for EtherCAT industrial applications, where cost pressure places a premium on design flexibility, connectivity and performance without compromise to EtherCAT communication features.
Note: Programming this kit requires installing SEGGER J-Link software

To use code from the BSP, simply include a reference to cybsp.h.

BSP Configuration

The BSP has a few hooks that allow its behavior to be configured. Some of these items are enabled by default while others must be explicitly enabled. Items enabled by default are specified in the KIT_XMC43_RELAX_ECAT_V1.mk file. The items that are enabled can be changed by creating a custom BSP or by editing the application makefile.

Components:

• Device specific category reference (e.g.: CAT1) - This component, enabled by default, pulls in any device specific code for this board.

Defines:

• CYBSP_WIFI_CAPABLE - This define, disabled by default, causes the BSP to initialize the interface to an onboard wireless chip if it has one.
• CY_USING_HAL - This define, enabled by default, specifies that the HAL is intended to be used by the application. This will cause the BSP to include the applicable header file and to initialize the system level drivers.
• CYBSP_CUSTOM_SYSCLK_PM_CALLBACK - This define, disabled by default, causes the BSP to skip registering its default SysClk Power Management callback, if any, and instead to invoke the application-defined function cybsp_register_custom_sysclk_pm_callback to register an application-specific callback.

See the BSP Setttings for additional board specific configuration settings.

API Reference Manual

The KIT_XMC43_RELAX_ECAT_V1 Board Support Package provides a set of APIs to configure, initialize and use the board resources.

See the BSP API Reference Manual for the complete list of the provided interfaces.
