SYS68K CPU-40 B/16
Product Description
The SYS68K CPU-40 B/16 is a rugged embedded processor module based on the Motorola 68000 family architecture, designed for industrial computing and control applications that require reliable performance in harsh environments. It serves as the central processing unit (CPU) in legacy industrial systems, executing control algorithms, managing I/O modules, and facilitating communication with external devices. This module is widely used in older automation systems, such as manufacturing machinery, power grid monitoring equipment, and transportation control systems, where long-term operational stability and compatibility with legacy software are critical.
In a legacy steel mill’s rolling mill control system, the SYS68K CPU-40 B/16 module processes real-time data from 32 sensors measuring roll pressure and strip thickness, executing closed-loop control algorithms with a cycle time of 10ms. It maintains rolling precision within ±0.02mm, ensuring consistent steel strip quality and reducing scrap rates by 8%. In a vintage railway signaling system, it coordinates the operation of 16 track circuits and 8 signal lights, with a response time to sensor inputs of ≤5ms, ensuring safe train spacing and reducing signaling errors by 12%.
Encased in a robust metal housing with an IP20 protection rating, the module resists dust and mechanical vibration. It operates stably within a temperature range of 0°C to 60°C and a relative humidity of 5%-95% (non-condensing), with a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of ≥50,000 hours. It supports integration into standard 19-inch racks, making it compatible with legacy system enclosures.
