Description

The General Electric IC697CPU771 is a high-performance Central Processing Unit (CPU) module designed for the Series 90-70 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) platform. Featuring an embedded 80C186 microprocessor operating at 12 MHz, this module delivers a Boolean execution time of 0.4 microseconds per function. It serves as the primary controller for industrial automation, managing real-time control of machinery, material handling systems, and complex process automation.

Features

  • 12 MHz 80C186 microprocessor architecture.
  • Supports up to 2K discrete inputs and outputs (any mix).
  • Supports up to 8K analog I/O points.
  • 0.4 microseconds per Boolean function execution speed.
  • Software-based configuration (no physical DIP switches or jumpers required).
  • Three-position operation mode switch for manual control.
  • Battery-backed calendar clock for time-stamping and scheduling.
  • Three integrated status LED indicators: Module OK, Run, and Outputs Enabled.
  • Compatible with VME C.1 Standard format backplanes (IC697CHS750, 782, 783, 790, 791).

Applications

  • Gas Turbine Control Systems
  • Industrial Process Control and Automation
  • Water Treatment Plant Management
  • Automotive Assembly and Robotics
  • Power Generation and Grid Control
