Built on a 32-bit 80386EX architecture running at 25 MHz, this module distinguishes itself by integrating a 10Base-T Ethernet port directly onto the CPU faceplate. It executes complex control logic with a fast scan rate of 0.22 ms per 1K logic, while simultaneously managing up to 4,096 I\/O points. This single-slot solution eliminates the need for separate Ethernet modules, making it the ideal choice for networked industrial automation environments requiring high-speed data exchange and robust logic execution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessional Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIC693CPU363\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcessor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntel 80386EX (25 MHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUser Memory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e240 KB Configurable RAM \/ Flash\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI\/O Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUp to 4,096 Discrete \/ 2,048 Analog Points\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScan Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.22 ms per 1K of Boolean logic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFloating Point Math\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYes (Supports complex calculations)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEthernet Port\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 x 10Base-T (Built-in)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 x RS-232, 1 x RS-485\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBaseplate Support\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUp to 8 Racks (1 Local + 7 Expansion)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Requirement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e670 mA from +5 VDC backplane\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0 °C to +60 °C (32 °F to 140 °F)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEngineering Advantages\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC693CPU363 provides specific hardware solutions for modernizing legacy PLC systems and improving network transparency:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated TCP\/IP Architecture:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe built-in Ethernet port allows direct connection to HMI, SCADA, and enterprise networks without occupying additional rack slots.
