Sercos III is the third generation of the Sercos interface, a standardized open digital interface for the communication between industrial controls, motion devices, input/output devices (I/O), and Ethernet nodes, such as PCs. Sercos III applies the hard real-time features of the Sercos interface to Ethernet. It is based upon the Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3 and ISO/IEC 8802-3). Work began on Sercos III in 2003,^[1] with vendors releasing first products supporting it in 2005.^[2]
