Industrial Reference Platform Application Example | |
Intel, Altera, MSC/GE-Research, and 3S-Systems Software used the Industrial Reference Platform to show a computer numeric controller (CNC)
EtherCAT drives demonstration at Embedded World ’09 (see Figure 1). The demonstration used the EtherCAT protocols standard to control drives
and motors, with the resulting pattern simulated on the LCD display.
The Intel® Atom™ processor runs the Linux OSADL, application drivers, and the 3S CoDeSys PLC software. Hpe_IRP based on the Altera® Arria®
GX FPGA provides the industrial Ethernet intellectual property (IP) and I/O connectivity, communicating with the Intel® Atom™ processor via PCI Express
and to the drive control modules across EtherCAT links.
