Title: Add ethernet to MSP430F2618 microcontroller
Post by: Priyanka Deshmukh on January 31, 2019, 05:41:21 PM
Hello,
I have a question regarding adding Ethernet port to my MSP430F2618 microcontroller.can you help me? what can be the options from olimex other than cs8900A-H.
I get data in ASCII from msp430F2618 over usb, Baud rates are upto 9600, 115200 and 921600. I need to send same dataover ethernet.  However i have no idea what effect will be there on speed over ethernet! I have never also programmed for ethernet, please can you link some very useful information related to this application and any products that olimex has on store?

Add external board just for Ethernet. Something modern with many examples such as the ESP32 boards. Either ESP32-GATEWAY or ESP32-PoE would be a good and affordable way to add Ethernet/WIFI/Bluetooth to any existing design or board. The pages are here:
