Hi everyone!Sorry about my bad English Embarassed

!
I'm interested by pic and ethernet communication.
I'm on my way to attempt to build project with pic18fxxx and ENC28J60 http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en022889 by SPI between them.
The reason I'm not going to use PIC18F97J60(which has build in ethernet controller) is that I haven't needed libraries for "TCP/IP.c" That's why I prefer to use conventional pic whit SPI and separate controller (ENC28J60).
My question is: Have someone ever created such a project?
If the answer is yes, I would appreciate whatever information. Very Happy

Thank you!

You will need a TCP/IP library.

I know of two options:

1) get the free Microchip TCP/IP library and free student version of the C18 compiler. You can get lots of good support from the Microchip forums. You can also see an example project with hardware and software and guides for how to adapt the libraries to your particular hardware on my website (see below). This is for a PIC24 but can apply to PIC18 as well.

2) get the latest version of the CCS PCH compiler. This costs money. It includes a TCP/IP library. It also includes the manuals for the CCS development boards which provide circuits and examples for how to get started with TCP/IP. You will get good support from the CCS forums.

Be sure to use the correct forum for the path you choose.

A warning: embedded TCP/IP is not easy. The TCP/IP library contains thousands of lines of code. Any small error in hardware or software will result in failure.

Good luck.
