Product Description:
The 5C5002.16 central processing module is manufactured by B & R Automation as part of the 5CS Provit Controller System Units series. Installed in a Provit control rack, the board executes deterministic logic, coordinates motion axes, and manages data exchange with distributed I/O stations on a production line. By combining an embedded PC architecture with real-time control functions, it supplies the computational layer required for machine sequencing, operator displays, and fieldbus gateway functions inside an industrial automation cell.
Its backplane system bus moves commands at 100 MHz, permitting timely distribution of process variables to adjacent cards. The on-board CPU runs a core clock of 850 MHz, providing adequate instruction throughput for multitasking control loops. Separate instruction and data L1 caches of 16 kB + 16 kB keep frequently used code and variables close to the execution units to reduce latency. A second-level cache of 256 kB is implemented as an Advanced Transfer Cache, sustaining higher bandwidth between the core and external SDRAM while minimizing bus contention during synchronized motion profiles.
The processing core follows the Pentium III architecture, so established real-time operating systems and microcode libraries can be used without recompilation. Hardware compatibility across Provit racks is maintained because the module mates directly with controller bases marked 5C5001.1x/2x/3x/4x and with expansion carriers labeled 5C5601.1x/2x/3x. When inserted into any slot within the 5CS Provit Controller System Units backplane, the board synchronizes with the deterministic bus scheduler and exposes its high-precision timers to neighboring motion cards, maintaining cycle integrity for complex packaging, printing, or assembly machines.
