CX5130-0155 | BECKHOFF | Module CPU

Description

Designed for mid-range automation tasks, the Beckhoff CX5130-0155 functions as a high-performance embedded PC module equipped with an Intel Atom multi-core processor. This DIN rail-mountable industrial controller integrates direct I/O interfaces for both Beckhoff EtherCAT Terminals (E-bus) and Bus Terminals (K-bus), automatically detecting the connected bus type during system initialization. This dual I/O bus support ensures seamless integration into legacy systems and modern high-speed EtherCAT architectures alike.

The hardware architecture features a 1.75 GHz Intel Atom E3827 dual-core processor supported by 4 GB DDR3 RAM. To ensure absolute data integrity during unplanned power losses, the module features an integrated 1-second hardware UPS that saves up to 1 MB of persistent data to a CFast card. Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB 2.0 interfaces, a DVI-I port, and a customizable option slot provide comprehensive communication capabilities for standard industrial control setups.
