PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC697CPU782 is a Series 90-70 Processor Module. It executes instructions using a 16 MHz 80386DX microprocessor. Boolean logic executes at 0.4 microseconds per function. The unit operates in a simplex configuration and mounts in slot 1 of rack 0. Memory protection uses an integrated front key switch to prevent unauthorized logic modifications. RAM retention is maintained by an IC697ACC701 lithium battery during primary power loss.
This central processing module interfaces over the backplane using standard VME C.1 architecture. It addresses up to 12 KB of discrete input and output data. It also manages 8 KB of analog input and output data. Maximum system RAM expands up to 512 KB. Three front status LEDs display module health, run state, and output enablement. Current draw requires 1.6 Amps from the backplane at 5 Volts DC.
