Backplane Bus Communication Velocity and Firmware Flash Compatibility
The IC698CRE020 leverages a 700 MHz processor paired with 10 MB of onboard user memory to deliver high backplane bus communication velocity across the Rx7i VME64 backplane. Designed for redundant CPU configurations, the unit synchronizes system data across network paths via its integrated Ethernet interface without imposing latency on logic execution cycles. Firmware flash compatibility ensures seamless instruction execution and precise I/O updates during primary-to-backup failover transitions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How is power supplied to the IC698CRE020 CPU module? A: Power is drawn directly from the backplane power supply bus within the Rx7i chassis rack.
Q: What environmental humidity limits apply to the IC698CRE020 during standard operation? A: The module is specified to operate within an ambient relative humidity range of up to 80% non-condensing at operating temperatures between 0 and 60 deg C.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Insert the module vertically into the designated CPU slot of the Rx7i chassis, ensuring the VME backplane connectors align before applying seating pressure.
- Tighten upper and lower chassis retention screws to maintain ground continuity and prevent vibration-induced mechanical disconnection.
- Route Ethernet communication cables through separated wire channels away from high-voltage field wiring to prevent electromagnetic interference.
- Verify that diagnostic LEDs display normal operational status during system power-up sequences before enabling network synchronization.
