The Networrk Interface m
module or embedded de
esign contai ns everrything need
ded to participate in starr, line, or tree network toopologies inclu
uding the com
mmunications controller, protocol sstacks, Flash , RAM, Etheernet switch and PHYs. A
A host proce
essor conneccts to the Neetwork Interrface via a UART or 16‐b
bit Parallel In
nterface. At the softwar e layer the h
host connects to a “Uniffied Interface" so other protocols caan be used
d without ch
hanging the host softwaare. The Nettwork Interfaace has passsed PROFINEET v2.3 certification for Class B and Class C deviices and received Net Loa
ad Class III a
accreditation
n. Both advanced and leegacy startt‐up are supported so yo
our field devvice will operrate problem
m‐free in any PROFINET network and will never disconnect from the netw
work. Eas

Integratiion
The Networrk Interface can be integgrated into aa design as eeither a mod
dule or an em
mbedded de
esign. As a m
module, the Network Intterface plugs into a boarrd using stan
ndard 2.54 m
mm pitch thrrough‐hole ppins. on is as easyy as Wheen designing‐in the module, hardware integratio
conn
necting Powe
er/Ground/R
Reset and in
nterfacing the Host to th e UART or 16
6‐bit Parallel interface. As an embedded design
n, the Netwo
ork Interfacee hardware design can b
be integrate
ed directly u
using the sch
hematics pro
ovided. Alsoo provided aare the Bill off Materials aand example
e layouts to minim
mize the hard
dware design effort. Sofftware for thhe embeddeed design is p
provided as firmware that is download
ded to the flash. Whether using the
e Network In terface as a module or aan embeddeed design, no
o softw
ware develo
opment is re
equired and there are no
o license feees or royalties. Software inttegration with a Host is also easy. M
Messages paassed betweeen the Host and Networrk Interface follow a ““Unified Inteerface” defin
nition. A sim
mple to use, IInnovasic supplied, PC‐based to
ool configurees the Netw
work Interfacce, so the Host only passes paraameters betw
ween it and the Networrk Interface. From this tool, it is alsso easy to sp
pecify how p
parameters w
will be o the PROFIN
NET controlleer using the GSDML file. Since the passed to
Host is on
nly passing pparameters, tthe Host sofftware does not have to change if PROFINET nnetwork paraameters chaange or if ano
other Industrial Ethernet prrotocol is useed. There iss also a “sockkets” interface that supporrts direct Eth
hernet comm
munication. Example C‐
code is prrovided to m
minimize the software efffort for the Host / Network IInterface communicatio
on. www.inno

nd the Discovvery and Conffiguration Prrotocol (DCP
P) which is re
equired for aall PROFINETT devices and
d provides b
basic device conffiguration faccilities, and tthe Link Layer Discoveryy Protocol (LLLDP) so controllers can identify the devices attacched to the network and

Also includeed is the Simple Networkk Managemeent Protocol (SNM
