Description
FANUC A16B-3200-0352 is a data server printed circuit board (PCB) in the A16B-3200 series of control electronics used inside industrial FANUC CNC controllers.
🔎 What It Is
-
Part Number: A16B-3200-0352
-
Description: Data Server PCB — a specialized board used to manage data handling and communication tasks within the controller’s electronics.
-
Product Series: A16B-3200 (FANUC control board family) — these boards typically include CPU, data server, RISC logic, and other control PCB roles.
📊 Role in the Controller
-
This board functions as part of the data management subsystem in a FANUC control unit. It may work together with the main CPU and RISC boards to store, pass, or coordinate data traffic between modules such as I/O, memory, and higher-level control logic.
-
The “data server” role often means it acts as an intermediary/communication manager for data paths inside the CNC controller architecture rather than performing core motion control itself.
🛠️ Typical Context
-
Part of the A16B-3200 control PCB family, which is used in series CNC controllers (legacy FANUC systems and some servo logic units).
-
Works alongside other A16B-3200 boards like RISC control modules (e.g., A16B-3200-0351) and CPU boards to complete the controller’s electronics.
-
Often core-exchange required when purchasing refurbished units.
