EtherCAT is Industrial Ethernet - Evolved

 

EtherCAT is Industrial Ethernet Evolved Ethernet for Control and Automation Technology - is a cost-effective, real-time, international standard that makes Ethernet technologies available at the I/O level.

The introduction of fieldbus technology was a major milestone for the widespread application of PC-based control systems. CPU power has been increasing rapidly, however, the communication speed and performance of traditional fieldbuses have not kept pace, causing bottlenecks that can impede the performance of modern control systems. Many suppliers in the automation industry are now turning to Industrial Ethernet.
