PLCcore - IEC 61131-3 Programmable System on Module (SOM)
|
The PLCcore SOM is an insert-ready OEM-able single board computer subassembly coming with a state-of-the-art operating system, pre-integrated IEC 61131-3 runtime kernel and a CiA 302 compliant CANopen manager. Performance-optimized 32-bit CPU core components, value-adding peripherals and the user-programmable I/O layer makes the PLCcore a truly generic platform for own control application developments.
What's special about it?
- no additional license cost for PLCcore-based product development and product distribution
- insert-ready, low-EMI, 32-bit hardware platform and deployment-ready operating system with PLC firmware
- simultaneous execution of OS-level and PLC-level user-applications
- fully featured Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for C/C++ and IEC 61131-3 application development
- seamlessly integrated CiA 302 and CiA 314 compliant CANopen manager
- open and customizable I/O layer concept allows for adaptation to different application carrier boards
- comprehensive starter kit packages to accelerate your PLCcore-based application development
When to consider starting with a PLCcore-based design?
- when you want to create tangible solutions under extreme cost and time constraints
- when you want to realize a product idea but you do not have reliable market forecasts
- when starting a conventional product design cycle does not seem to be feasible
- when you want to make concept studies or prototyping in preparation to a fully-featured product design
