[En-Nut-Discussion] EtherNut 3.0

[Sidney Cadot]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of sustained  
bandwidth the EtherNut 3 can do over Ethernet, using a TCP connection  
(assuming a receiver that is able to keep up). I would like to be  
able to buy one, but this particular number is important for my  
application.

Ideally, I would like a sustained bandwidth of 5 Mbytes/second or  
better, outgoing w.r.t. the EtherNut. What will this mean in terms of  
processor load?

I would also like to know about incoming traffic.

Furthermore, I would like to be able to have the datastream going for  
days or even weeks - is the EtherNut and its OS stable enough for  
that kind of thing?

My application is a hobby project where lots of data need to be moved  
into / out of an FPGA. I plan to hook up the FPGA development board  
to the EtherNut via the expansion bus. The EtherNut will initially  
act as a bridge between the FPGA and a PC, but I would love to  
offload some initial processing onto the EtherNut's processor.

Best regards,
