[En-Nut-Discussion] Ethernut Microchip PIC port

[Ake Hedman]

Matthias

I was thinking of the PIC18F8621 which have external memory interface. 
But I would have loved if it was possible on a PIC18F6621 which has 64K 
flash and 3840 SRAM. The SBC65EC 
(http://www.modtronix.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_36&products_id=149)  
from Modtronix would have been nice as a EtherNut candidate as the card 
is just EUR 47.

How much RAM is needed as a minimum by EtherNut?

I will use this card in for a couple of open projects for SOHO 
automation (http.//www.vscp.org) and now use the Microchip TCP/IP stack 
but would prefere an open alternative so the work we in the VSCP project 
do comes to the open source communities benefits.

Cheers
