Featuring a 10 MHz 80188 microprocessor integrated directly onto the backplane board, it executes Boolean logic at a typical scan rate of 0.6 ms per 1K. The unit integrates a dedicated power supply slot alongside 10 expansion slots for I\/O modules, delivering a compact, cost-effective baseplate architecture without requiring a separate CPU module in Slot 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProcessor and Memory Allocation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe embedded CPU includes 12 Kbytes of user memory for program and data storage (6 Kbytes for firmware releases prior to Version 7.0). Primary memory is maintained via battery-backed RAM, with backup power supplied by the system power supply module plugged into the baseplate. Non-volatile EPROM or EEPROM memory chips can also be installed for program storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSystem memory address allocations support up to 320 discrete I\/O points (maximum combined %I inputs and %Q outputs, capped at 160 %I inputs), 64 words of analog inputs (%AI), and 32 words of analog outputs (%AQ). Additional internal resources include 340 total timers\/counters and support for shift register instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSystem Architecture and Functional Limitations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned specifically for self-contained control setups, the IC693CPU323U does not support expansion baseplates or remote I\/O racks. Because the RAM backup battery resides in the removable power supply module rather than on the CPU board itself, the system does not include a real-time (time-of-day) clock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, the embedded processor architecture does not support logic interrupts or the I\/O Override function available on modular Series 90-30 CPUs. Advanced communication modules such as PCM (Programmable Coprocessor Module) and CCM (Communications Control Module) are not supported.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommunications Capabilities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerial communications are provided through the 15-pin D-sub connector on the installed power supply module, which connects directly to the CPU backplane interface. This native port operates strictly in SNP slave and SNP-X slave modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile PCM and CCM modules cannot be used, optional option modules—such as Ethernet, Profibus, FIP, GBC, GCM, and GCM+—can be installed in the baseplate slots to add networking capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIC693CPU323U\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Fanuc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmbedded CPU Baseplate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicroprocessor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80188\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClock Speed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 MHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTypical Scan Rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.6 ms per 1K Boolean logic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTotal I\/O Slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Supply Slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 dedicated slot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUser Memory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 Kbytes (RAM; optional EPROM\/EEPROM)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiscrete I\/O Points\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e320 maximum combined (%I inputs max 160; %Q outputs max 320)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalog Inputs (%AI)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64 words\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalog Outputs (%AQ)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32 words\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTimers \/ Counters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e340 total\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNative Serial Protocols\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSNP slave, SNP-X slave (via power supply connector)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Expansion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-expandable (no expansion or remote baseplates)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBus Current Draw\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e430 mA @ +5 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.16 kg (2.56 lbs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Why does the IC693CPU323U lack a battery-backed real-time clock? A: The memory backup battery is housed inside the power supply module rather than on the CPU board itself. Unplugging or replacing the power supply disconnects the battery from the CPU RAM, preventing the maintenance of a continuous real-time clock circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can I connect an expansion baseplate to the IC693CPU323U to increase I\/O capacity? A: No, embedded CPU baseplates like the IC693CPU323U are non-expandable and do not feature an expansion bus connector for adding local expansion or remote baseplates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Are PCM and CCM communication modules compatible with this baseplate? A: No, the IC693CPU323U does not support PCM or CCM modules. For external network communication beyond SNP\/SNP-X slave protocols, compatible option modules such as Ethernet, Profibus, or GCM must be used instead.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"General Electric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67107517792371,"sku":"IC693CPU323U","price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/4348\/2227\/files\/IC693CHS392C2_Cocoai_945e5653-4b1d-4173-a615-720e1ec6351a.jpg?v=1793787282","url":"https:\/\/www.dcssupplier.com\/products\/cpu-baseplate-ge-fanuc-ic693cpu323u-series-90-30","provider":"DcsSupplier Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
