Hardware requirements#
Type-C USB cable
RJ45 Network cable (for 100BASE-TX mode)
10BASE-T1S network adapter and cable (optional for 10BASE-T1S mode)
FRDM-MCXA577 board
Personal Computer
Board settings#
Short position 2-3 on J29.
Use with 10BASE-T1S Ethernet#
The example uses 100BASE-TX Ethernet over RJ45 by default. If you want to use the internal 10BASE-T1S digital PHY, redefine BOARD_NETWORK_USE_TENBASET_PHY from board.h to 1 and rebuild. Connect to a PC with a 10BASE-T1S network adapter instead of RJ45 and enable PLCA on a PC with the following parameters: - node ID: 0 (PLCA coordinator) - node count: 8 - TO timer: 32 BT - burst count: 0 - burst timer: 128 BT
