The wiznet modules give you a TCPIP protocol stack. It also gives you an ethernet MAC. And they do it on a single chip. But I'm not sure that they compete in the face of the many Cortex-M3 offerings available these days - see: http://www.8052.com/forumchat/read/172355 the most interesting example ran an embedded web server on an Atmel 8951. Again, that's great as a interactive demo of a single board, but not very scalable to a system with many remote devices - especially for automatic control/monitoring. For automatic control/monitoring of many remote devices, you really want to make the remote devices the clients. See: http://www.8052.com/forumchat/read/174898 I reckon that once you can do that, anything is possible. Indeed - once you've got the TCP/IP and ethernet (or whatever) going, you can build whatever you like on top of that. |
