AW: [En-Nut-Discussion] Design based around the ethernut1.3g

Hi,

Just a thought, please ensure that your power supply to the board can
provide at least 500mA.
I have had some problems with a weak ac adaptor and a connected programming
dongle when the network chip was activated by a call to NutRegisterDevice
(&devEht0,..)

First try: Just disconnect the programming adaptor and test again.

Cheers,
Oliver.

I am currently using 74HC373 because I have large stock. If speed is the
issue can it be slowed down by adding wait state, which I have tries with
the following within main thread.
	sbi(XMCRA, SRW00);
	sbi(XMCRA,SRL2);

Does the fact that my hardware sending out bogus packet similar to ethernut
hardware mean that the interation between the processor and the RTL is ok ?

Yes I did say my hardware hangs at function call
Nutregisterdevice(&devEth0,,) with "basemon.c" but it goes beyond the device
registration point and hangs somewhere else with the "tcp.c" because my
hardware sends out valid packet for a moment. It is with this "tcp.c" that
my hardware responds to a ping.

Rich,

Yes, Basemon option B sends bogus packets.

Basemon's RAM test is not very versatile. It may not detect timing problems.
It's main purpose is to find shorted or open wires and the last RAM address
as well as the number of banks.

We have also used 70 ns RAMs without problems. However, we do extensive test
before selecting new chips. RAM timing on Ethernut is indeed highly
critical.

You may also check the HC573, optionally replace it with an AHC type.
However, these chips are typically very noisy, regarding EMC.

Harald
