Featuring a dual-processor architecture with dedicated application and input\/output processing units, this module coordinates field I\/O scanning, safety logic calculations, and system diagnostic routines under 24 VDC operational power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProcessing Architecture and Memory Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module integrates two 32-bit Motorola MPC860 microprocessors operating at 50 MHz. The application processor (SX) handles safety logic execution using 16 MB parity-checked DRAM, 6 MB CRC-protected Flash PROM for program and SOE storage, and 8 KB CRC-protected NVRAM for retentive data. A separate I\/O processor (IOX) manages field data via 16 MB DRAM and communicates with the SX processor through a 128 KB shared memory interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInter-Channel Communications and Power Supply\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiagnostic data between main processor channels is transferred via a high-speed 2 Mbps HDLC diagnostic bus. Powered by a nominal 24 VDC logic supply (operational from +19.2 to +30 VDC including AC ripple), the module consumes a maximum of 8 W logic power. Internal protective circuitry withstands an absolute maximum input voltage of 33 VDC and reverse voltage down to -0.6 VDC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3101\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTriconex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMain Processor Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication Processor (SX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotorola MPC860, 32-bit, 50 MHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlash PROM (SX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 MB (CRC-protected)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDRAM (SX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 MB (Byte parity)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNVRAM (SX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 KB (CRC-protected)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eI\/O Processor (IOX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotorola MPC860, 32-bit, 50 MHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDRAM (IOX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 MB (Byte parity)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShared Memory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e128 KB (Byte parity)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiagnostic Bus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 Mbps HDLC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNominal Logic Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Voltage Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+19.2 to +30 VDC (24 VDC -15%\/+20% + 5% AC ripple)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Logic Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbsolute Maximum Input Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbsolute Maximum Reverse Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-0.6 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What microprocessors are used on the Triconex 3101 main processor module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module incorporates two 32-bit Motorola MPC860 processors operating at 50 MHz: one dedicated as the Application Processor (SX) and the other as the Input\/Output Processor (IOX).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How do the SX and IOX processors exchange data on the 3101 module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Data exchange between the application processor and the I\/O processor is conducted through a 128 KB parity-checked shared memory interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What are the input voltage tolerances for the 24 VDC logic power supply on the 3101?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module operates within a voltage range of +19.2 to +30 VDC (24 VDC -15%\/+20% plus 5% AC ripple), with an absolute maximum voltage rating of 33 VDC.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Triconex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67899505705269,"sku":"3101","price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/7630\/5461\/files\/3101.png?v=1792641359","url":"https:\/\/www.5gplc.com\/products\/triconex-3101-main-processor-module","provider":"High Five PLC Solution Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
