Description
Product Description
The IC693CPU313 is a compact embedded Turbo CPU integrated with a 5-slot baseplate, designed for the GE Fanuc Series 90‑30 PLC systems. Featuring an Intel 80188 processor running at 10 MHz, it delivers a rapid 0.6 ms scan rate per 1K Boolean instructions, making it ideal for small to mid-sized automation projects that require reliable discrete and analog control without additional expansion racks.
This embedded CPU/baseplate combination includes 12 KB of user memory, supports up to 160 discrete inputs and 160 discrete outputs, and provides built-in SNP and SNP‑X serial communication for streamlined integration. Its simple architecture and minimal footprint make it suitable for compact control panels, while its proven reliability ensures widespread deployment in industrial, utility, and manufacturing environments.
