Siemens 6ES74012TA010AA0

Technical Parameters

Scalable I/O Capacity

Supports up to 65,536 I/O points across 21 expansion racks, with address range partitioning for mixed analog/digital module configurations.

Integrated Co-Processor

Dedicated FPU (Floating-Point Unit) accelerates complex math operations (e.g., PID loops) with 64-bit IEEE 754 precision, achieving 0.5 ms resolution for motion control tasks.

Deterministic PROFINET IRT

Synchronizes PROFINET IO devices via IRT (Isochronous Real-Time) with 31.25 μs update cycles, supporting up to 256 PROFINET nodes per controller.

Non-Stop Diagnostic Buffering

Maintains a 2,000-entry diagnostic ring buffer with millisecond timestamps, retaining fault data even during power loss via supercapacitor backup.

Multi-Language Programming

Executes code written in STL, LAD, FBD, SCL, and GRAPH simultaneously, with cross-language variable sharing and real-time debugging via TIA Portal.

Redundancy Readiness

Prepares for system redundancy via FOC (Fiber Optic Cable) synchronization (pre-configured in firmware), requiring only partner CPU and IM 460-1 modules.
