Description
FANUC A16B-3200-0390 is an i B stand-alone control RISC & data server PCB used in industrial CNC controllers. It’s part of the A16B-3200 series of printed circuit boards, which serve as the central processing and control electronics inside FANUC controller units.
🔌 Function & Role
-
Control Processor Board: This board acts as the main control / RISC processor unit for a standalone Fanuc CNC control system — essentially serving as the core logic/CPU board.
-
Data Server Feature: It includes data server capability to handle essential machine control logic, data processing, and communication with other controller modules such as I/O, axis/servo cards, and memory modules.
-
Standalone Use: Designed for stand-alone operation in controllers without requiring additional CPU boards — often found in CNC cabinets where control electronics are modular.
🛠️ Controller Context
Boards like this are used in larger CNC systems where reliability, modularity, and robust processing are needed. Within the A16B-3200 series, different boards handle functions such as main CPU processing, axis control, memory storage, and communication. For example:
-
The A20B-3300 family provides CPU, memory and motion boards in other systems (e.g., i-B series).
-
A16B-3200-0390 serves a similar main processing role specifically in the A16B-3200 structure.
