Ethernet and CAN API

Postby modtronix » Wed Sep 21, 2016 4:00 am

Hi, great new chip! Can not wait to start playing with it!

Can you please tell me if Espressif will support Ethernet and CAN Bus in their SDK?

Yes, we have plans to support both in the ESP-IDF. Unfortunately, I can't give you a timeframe when support for this will appear.

Thanks for quick reply! That is great new!

Will Espressif be providing a hardware reference design for implementing Ethernet with the ESP32? We would like to soon start developing a general purpose SBC board with Ethernet (using the new ESP32). Would be great getting our hardware prototype going while you are doing the software.

Sorry, seems your messages got stuck in the moderation queue. I'll ask around to see if we're working on something.

ESP_Sprite we are also very interested in a Ethernet reference design. I posted and enquiry a while back but I guess it was a little too early before. :D

The current status is that we're working on a reference design; the hardware for it will be done in a week or two. The Ethernet driver itself still is a work-in-progress, however, we're expecting the first version to be fully done at the end of October.

Thanks for the update - looking forward to more details on the hardware chosen and driver implementation.

Hi "ESP_Sprite". In you last post in September you said the hardware should be done in a week or 2. Can you please let me know if something is available yet?

Not sure, I'll ask around what the holdup is.

Hi
I am very interested in ethernet with ESP32 too.
If you already have SDK information, could you post it, please?
Thanks a lot.
