Product Description
The X20CP0410-S controller is a compact and powerful automation solution featuring an ARM Cortex-A9 processor. This 166 MHz processor provides ample computing capabilities for control and automation applications. It includes 128 MB of DDR3 SDRAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and program execution. An additional 256 MB eMMC flash drive is built in, offering permanent storage for programs and data. 8 KB of FRAM provides memory for retaining critical variables even in the event of a power outage.
Communication and I/O are facilitated through various integrated interfaces. A single Ethernet port allows for high-speed networking and connection to higher-level control or servers. Two USB ports expand connectivity options, whether for programming, local HMI access, or additional peripheral devices. An X2X link interface is also included, making it compatible with standard fieldbus modules for connecting sensors and actuators. All of this connectivity is delivered through a rugged yet fanless housing designed for reliable long-term use in demanding industrial environments without any moving parts.
The operating temperature range of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius means this controller can handle a wide variety of ambient conditions commonly found on the plant floor or in machinery enclosures. Even in heat, it will continue performing precision control and computing tasks without issue. Control algorithms, PLC logic, and any other software run steadfast on the underlying ARM Cortex-A9 architecture. This reliable processor architecture has proven effective in automation, manufacturing, and other sectors demanding real-time responsiveness. Key specifications like memory size and type were selected to smoothly run even complex control programs. The 128 MB RAM provides temporary workspace for running applications while the 256 MB flash permanently retains both user programs and parameter data. Both DDR3 memory and eMMC storage ensure robust, consistent performance. Even with multiple processes active, there is ample headroom to take on expanded workload requirements over the service life of the product.
