1Introduction

PCM-26R1EC User Manual 2

1.1 EtherCAT Introduction

EtherCAT is a high-performance, Ethernet-based fieldbus industrial network system.

The protocol is standardized in IEC 61158 and applies to automation applications

requiring faster and more efficient communications. Short data update times with pre-

cise synchronization make EtherCAT suitable for applications requiring real-time

automation.

1.1.1 EtherCAT

1.1.1.1 The Functional Principle of EtherCAT

EtherCAT is a real-time, high-speed, and flexible Ethernet-based protocol. In an Eth-

erCAT network, the master node sends Ethernet frames via all of the slave nodes.

Under the EtherCAT protocol, standard Ethernet packets or frames are no longer

received, interpreted, or copied as process data at every node. Instead, slave

devices read only the data addressed to them, and the input data are inserted simul-

taneously as the telegram passes through the device, thus processing data “on the

fly.” Typically, the entire network can be addressed with just one frame. Compared

with other Ethernet-based communication protocols, EtherCAT is more efficient in uti-

lizing the available full-duplex bandwidth.

Figure 1.1 The Functional Principle of EtherCAT

1.1.1.2 The EtherCAT Protocol

Data exchanges are cyclically updated between EtherCAT master and slave nodes.

Data in EtherCAT frames are transported directly within the standard IEEE 802.3

Ethernet frame by using Ethertype 0x88a4, and they are processed by the EtherCAT

slave controller on the fly. Each EtherCAT datagram is a command comprising a

header, data, and a working counter (WKC). The datagram header indicates what

type of access the master device requires:

Read, write, read/write

Access to a specified slave device through direct addressing

Access to multiple slave devices through logical addressing

Logical addressing is used for the cyclical exchange of process data. The header and

data are used to specify the operation that the slave must perform, and the WKC is

updated by the slave to inform the master that a slave has processed the command.

3 PCM-26R1EC User Manual

Chapter 1 Introduction

Every EtherCAT datagram ends with a 16-bit WKC, indicating the number of devices

that were successfully addressed by each EtherCAT datagram.

Figure 1.2 The EtherCAT Protocol

EtherCAT datagrams are processed before the complete frame is received. In cases

where the data are invalid, the frame check sum is not valid and the slave will not set

the data as valid for local applications.

1.1.1.3 Topologies Supported by EtherCAT

EtherCAT supports various network topologies, including line, tree, ring, and star

topologies. The line and tree topologies are more conducive to fieldbus applications

because they require fewer connections and utilize a much simpler and more flexible

cabling schema, rendering switches and hubs necessary for these topologies.

Figure 1.3 EtherCAT Topology

Industrial Ethernet cables (up to 100 m in length) can be used between two nodes in

100BASE-TX mode. EtherCAT makes a pure bus or line topology with hundreds of

nodes possible. In fact, up to 65535 devices can be connected to EtherCAT, so net-

work expansion is virtually unlimited.

EtherCAT supports individual nodes to be connected and disconnected during opera-

tion. If one of the slaves in the network is removed, the rest of the network can con-

tinue to operate normally. EtherCAT also enables other communication features such

as cable redundancy or even master redundancy with hot standby.

PCM-26R1EC User Manual 4

1.1.1.4 Synchronization With EtherCAT

A distributed clock mechanism is used to provide highly precise time synchronization

between slaves in an EtherCAT network, which is equivalent to the Precision Time

Protocol defined in the IEEE 1588 standard. By using distributed clocks, EtherCAT

can synchronize the time in all local bus devices within a very narrow tolerance

range. All EtherCAT slaves are provided with an internal clock named as system time

(tLocal Time). One EtherCAT slave, usually the first slave, will be used as a reference

clock, and this slave cyclically distributes its clock time to other slaves.

Misalignment between the reference clock and clocks of the other slaves usually

occurs because when a slave is switched on, the internal free-running register that

holds the current time is reset to zero. This action does not occur at the same time in

all slaves, resulting in an initial offset (toffset) among clocks. This offset must be com-

pensated for.

Figure 1.4 EtherCAT Distributed Clock

Typically, the master sends a broadcast to all other slaves in the system. Once the

message has been received, the slaves latch the value of their internal clock twice:

once when the message is received and once when the message is returned. Thus,

the master can read all latched values and calculate the delay for each slave (tPropa-

gation Delay). Delays are stored in an offset register. Subsequently, the master sends a

message periodically to all other slaves in the EtherCAT network to make the first

slave the reference clock and force all other slaves to account for the calculated off-

set by setting their internal clock.

∆t = (tLocal Time + tOffset - tPropagation Delay) - tReceived System Time
