I’m working on a project using Microchip’s ENC28J60 and PIC32MX340F128H.  The ENC controller communicates via SPI to the host microcontroller, just add a few discretes and a mag jack and you’re all set (supposedly).  Microchip provides a HUGE (in my opinion, bloated) stack for all sorts of features (SMTP, Telnet, FTP, HTTP Server) but I don’t need all of that.  I just want a simple device that will obtain an IP (so I need DHCP) and talk with a webpage (send data, maybe via GET method page requests and retrieve data from the page).  Maybe I could implement an interrupt by requesting a certain page on a certain port which wouldn’t return a page (which would require an HTTP server) but would just force the device to check the update page.

Anyway, I’m going to document my progress through working with these two chips, post some code, some things I’ve found helpful, etc. — maybe they’ll be of interest to someone.

I’ll start with the lowest level stuff — the code that controls the SPI Peripheral of the PIC32:
