High-Performance Processing
The DSQC373 features a 32-bit RISC processor running at 400 MHz, delivering fast execution of robot control algorithms. This processing power ensures smooth motion control even for complex multi-axis applications. You therefore achieve precise path accuracy and repeatability.
The board includes 64 MB RAM and 32 MB Flash memory for system operations. 16 MB of user memory stores robot programs, configurations, and application-specific data. This capacity accommodates large and complex automation routines.
Comprehensive Communication Interfaces
We equipped the ABB DSQC373 with multiple communication options for flexible system integration. Two Ethernet ports support 10/100 Mbps connectivity for plant networks and programming access. Two RS-232C ports connect to legacy devices and peripheral equipment.
A USB port enables convenient program uploads, software updates, and data backup using standard USB drives. The integrated DeviceNet master and PROFIBUS DP slave interfaces connect directly to field I/O and higher-level control systems.
Integrated I/O and Battery Backup
The CPU board includes 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs operating at 24 VDC. These built-in I/O points handle basic control functions without additional modules. You can connect start/stop buttons, safety devices, and status indicators directly.
A lithium battery provides backup power for RAM retention during power-down periods. The battery maintains program and data integrity for up to 5 years under normal conditions. This feature prevents program loss during extended shutdowns.
Robust Mechanical Construction
Measuring 280 mm x 60 mm x 230 mm and weighing 1.2 kg, the DSQC373 occupies standard space within ABB control cabinets. The board mounts directly to the panel using integrated standoffs. D-sub, RJ45, and USB connectors provide reliable connections for all interfaces.
LED indicators display power status, processor activity, and network link status at a glance. This visual feedback assists technicians during commissioning and troubleshooting without additional tools.
Environmental Specifications
The DSQC373 operates reliably in 5°C to +50°C environments typical of industrial facilities. The -25°C to +70°C storage range allows safe transport and inventory management. For similar automation components, examine the RMS TSG TZ C Static Trip device from equipment suppliers.
With CE, UL, CSA, and RoHS approvals, the ABB DSQC373 meets global standards for industrial control equipment. This certification ensures compliance for installations worldwide across automotive, packaging, and material handling applications.
