This solution supports the GOAL approach by port – a comprehensive development system that allows for creating Multi Protocol support in one single design. The GOAL includes an option to manage an external Layer 2+ managed Ethernet Switch Controller.
GOAL: Creating connectivity for Industrial Ethernet does not only consist from setting up a piece of Source Code – it is rather a product philosophy from Top to Bottom. PROFINET comes with the requirement to pass very challenging Netload Test procedures. For this GOAL needs to change the Layer 2 Ethernet driver, implementing advanced buffering mechanisms, the GOAL driver needs to bypass the cyclic PROFINET frames alongside the TCP/IP Stack and the TCP/IP stack needs to be enabled to handle the Netload Test traffic. GOAL needs to embed all of this into the framework by STMicro. The GOAL driver can as a "Side Effect" be enabled to manage a L2+ managed Ethernet Switch.
And all of this inside an embedded platform, this results in a :
- highly optimized, performance tweaked MCU system prepared for several communication stacks in one project (GOAL)
- implemented TCP/IP
- optional: a managed L2+ Ethernet Switch
The PROFINET solution offers a competitive bill of materials cost with an optimized power consumption for both the STM32 CPU and the peripherals.
Key Features:
- PROFINET protocol library CC-A or CC-B in RT-1
- CC-A and RT-1 supported

The PROFINET protocol stack/library provides PROFINET compliant communication, utilizing STM32 on-board Ethernet controller. Only 128kByte of RAM are needed for Single port PROFINET in CC-A, including the lwIP TCP/IP Stack.
