EasyCAT Gateway
the EasyCAT Gateway is an EtherCAT® Slave and cannot be used to implement an EtherCAT® Master.
Looking below, you can see that there is LAN9252 for EtherCAT, and W5500 for Ethernet. As seen in this product, it is evident that EtherCAT is a protocol that can be implemented without a high-spec MCU.
