Product Description:
The 5PC600.X855-01 is an embedded industrial computer module produced by B&R Automation within the 5PC Industrial Automation Units series. It acts as the central processor inside control cabinets, supplying deterministic computation, data logging, and local visualization for automated machinery. By combining a Pentium-class CPU, chipset, memory controller, and peripheral buses on one compact board, the unit brings PC functionality into environments that demand continuous operation and real-time response.
Its processing core is an Intel Pentium M fabricated on a 0.13 µm process, which limits power draw while maintaining full performance. The CPU runs at 1600 MHz and exchanges data with the rest of the board over a 400 MHz front-side bus, providing predictable timing for cyclic control loops. A 32 kB L1 cache and a 1 MB L2 cache shorten access to frequently used instructions and I/O buffers that reside behind the Intel 82855GME and 82801DB chipset. One SO-DIMM DDR slot accepts up to 1 GB of system memory, giving enough space for PLC code, recipe tables, or short-term historian files. Support for the MMX and Streaming SIMD Extension 2 command sets accelerates fixed-point math frequently encountered in automation routines.
During power-up, an AMI BIOS bootloader initializes storage and peripheral buses, then hands control to an operating kernel loaded through two IDE ports with UDMA 100 support. Video output is driven by the Intel Extreme Graphics 2 controller integrated in the chipset; it renders up to 32-bit color while reserving up to 64 MB of shared memory for frame buffers, which is adequate for high-resolution HMI screens. Time-critical logging relies on the real-time clock, which maintains schedule accuracy within 12 ppm/day at 25 °C. The module supports motion control, diagnostics, and data collection on the same platform.
