Controller Boards

Controller boards for the Remora Ethernet component are more hardware specific than the Remora SPI version. As a result, the firmware is featured accross several branches based on specific hardware. Controller boards include:

STM32 based controller boards

  • NVEM - an STM32F207 based board with Ethernet PHY chip, originally intended for Mach3. [No longer in production, Legacy Support - no new features]

  • EC500 - an STM32F407 based board with Ethernet PHY chip, originally intended for Mach3. [No longer in production, Legacy Support - no new features]

  • Expatria Technologies Flexi-HAL with uFlexiNET Ethernet adapter - an STM32F446 based board with W5500 Ethernet SPI adapter designed for Remora

iMX RT1052 based controller boards

  • NVEM, EC300 & EC500 - iMXRT1052 based controller boards with Ethernet PHY chip, originally intended for Mach3. [In active development]

RP2040 based controller boards

  • WIZnet W5500-EVB-Pico - Raspberry Pi RP2040 based development board with on-board W5500 Ethernet SPI adapter

  • Expatria Technologies PicoBOB-DLX - Raspberry Pi RP2040 based board with on-board W5500 Ethernet SPI adapter designed for Remora
