Product Description:

The X90CP172.24-00 belongs to the X90 Mobile Controllers series from B&R Automation. This programmable controller is intended for mobile machinery operating in harsh outdoor environments. It acts as the central node for coordinating sensors, actuators, and communication buses. Its rugged design supports installation on construction, agricultural, and other off-road vehicles exposed to vibration, moisture, and changing temperatures.

The controller carries 256 MB of DDR3 RAM to buffer program variables and runtime data, while 512 MB of flash memory provides nonvolatile program storage. Parameter snapshots that must survive power interruptions are stored in 16 kB of FRAM, which provides fast access and high write endurance. Processing tasks are handled by an ARM Cortex-A9-300 CPU, supporting deterministic cycle times for motion and safety logic. Remote diagnostics and HMI connections use one 10/100BASE-T Ethernet port with an M12 connector. The circular connector tolerates the vibration and moisture commonly encountered on mobile equipment. The die-cast aluminum housing shields the electronics against electromagnetic interference and provides a solid thermal path, while its IP69K protection keeps the internal circuitry sealed during high-pressure washdown.

Fieldbus integration relies on three CAN interfaces on a CMC header, supporting redundant or segmented CANopen and J1939 networks. Analog transducers connect through eight analog I/O channels. High-density signal adaptation is available through 24 multifunction I/O channels that can be configured for digital, frequency, or counter functions. Four digital inputs and four digital outputs provide fixed discrete control points, while eight PWM outputs modulate hydraulic valves or proportional pumps. Two isolated sensor power rails simplify wiring by supplying either 5 V or 12 V directly from the device. Expansion is available through four option board slots, allowing GNSS, Bluetooth, or additional I/O capabilities to be added without increasing the base footprint.
