    Hello @Legacy member ,

    unfortunately the STM32H7 series is not supported in the port of EtherCAT protocol stack/lib supported by ST as shown in this screenshot below

    Hi @Legacy member,

    I am doing an EtherCAT project with STM32F303 connected to the Microchip LAN9252 via SPI with the F303/LAN52 as a ECat slave.

    The plan is to start with the Microchip EVB-LAN9252_SAM D51 dev board for stack bring up, communication from the master and port what is learned to the F303.

    Thought I would bump this thread to share ideas and pitfalls.

    How is your project going?

    Hi Jlag

    I am starting a new project using LAN9252 as well. I will comunicate by SPI with a STM32F4. If you share your project it will help me a lot.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello,

    if you did not find a solution for the EtherCAT master meanwhile, you could have a look on the following web pages:

    https://www.ibv-augsburg.de/en/products/icnet/ethercat-master/

    https://www.st.com/en/partner-products-and-services/icecat-ethercat-master-stack.html 

    IBV provides an EtherCAT master software which is especially designed for microcontrollers like the STM32H7.

    Best regards,

    Walter
