1. Introduction
The EASY plug W5100 ethernet module needs to be used with the EASY plug Control board V2.0 control board. The module is connected to the SPI communication interface with only one line, so the wiring is done in a simple and convenient way. W5100 is a multi-purpose single internet interface chip, integrated 10/100 ethernet controller inside,and applied to embedded system which is high integration, high stability, high performance and low cost. It can be connected to Internet without operating system and compatible with IEEE802.3 10BASE-T and 802.3u 100BASE-TX. It contains TCP/IP protocol stack that is full-hardware and verified by market for years, ethernet medium transport layer and physical layer. You don’t need to consider the control of ethernet, and just need simple program of ports.
