## Overview

The netHAT 'NHAT 52-RE' is a cutting-edge HAT module that upgrades Raspberry Pi 2, 3, and Zero models with real-time Ethernet capabilities using Hilscher’s netX 52 SoC. Supporting PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT protocols, it enables 32-byte input/output data exchange via a 25 MHz SPI interface. Ideal for developers and students, it comes with comprehensive device files, drivers, and example code to simplify integration and accelerate industrial communication learning and prototyping.

## Description

With its multiprotocol SoC netX, Hilscher is one of the technology leaders in matters of industrial communication controllers. The netHAT plug-in module expands an ordinary Raspberry Pi by a netX access, which allows an exchange of user data between a Pi application and Real-Time Ethernet networks via the two RJ45 plugs. The module is compatible with the Hardware Attached on Top (HAT) specification of Raspberry’s GPIO connector. Pi and netHAT communicate via a 25 MHz high-speed SPI interface. The protocol software in the module can optionally be integrated into the networks PROFINET, EtherNet/IP or EtherCAT as a simple I/O device. The driver configuration decides which software is loaded while launching the module. In order to simplify the commissioning of the netHAT on standard controllers and master systems, the driver configures the input and output data to 32 bytes. Corresponding GSDML, EDS, ESI device description files as well as the driver library can be downloaded from the web page www.netHAT.net. Also a pre-compiled demo application and an example „c“ source code, which can be customized and compiled for own purposes, are offered. netHAT offers the ideal entry for students and pre-development tests. Just plug the module and communicate! The netHAT module is for training purposes only and is not qualified for industrial use. It teaches the use of netX and expands the understanding of its application interface. For the professional use of the netX technology in your own devices, we are happy to advise you.
