We need a bus communication that requires a minimum of CPU core time and interrupts.
How much of the Ether CAT is realized in HW? Is there a chart for USB etc of code required.
Many thanks in advance!

Hi Rector,
The XMC4800 has a 2 port EtherCAT Slave peripheral included: http://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/promopages/xmc4300_4800-EtherCAT/#xmc4800
The EtherCAT slave peripheral does most of the work to process EtherCAT frames in real time, so that the 144MHz Cortex-M4f core is mostly free to perform other tasks.
Best,
Rick
