Features:
- 25 MHz 80386EX execution engine with 240 Kbytes of configurable user memory
- Three integral serial ports reduce the need for a separate communications module
- Supports eight baseplates and up to 2,048 discrete inputs plus 2,048 discrete outputs
IC693CPU363 places processing and serial access in a single Series 90-30 slot for compact multi-rack control.
Configurable reference tables let program memory be apportioned around register and analog-data needs.
The CPU exchanges data with local and expansion I/O while maintaining the PLC scan and diagnostic functions.
The General Electric IC693CPU363 Series 90-30 Model 363 CPU module may remain available for quotation and installed-system support from Apter Power.

Execution resources
- Processor: The 25 MHz 80386EX handles real-time ladder execution and floating-point calculations.
- Boolean speed: A typical Boolean instruction rate of 0.22 ms per K supports responsive machine sequencing.
- User memory: The 240 Kbyte memory pool stores program logic, configuration, and reference data.
- Reference capacity: Discrete I/O reaches 2,048 inputs and 2,048 outputs, with analog and register tables configured as needed.
Built-in interfaces
- Port count: Three serial channels are available without occupying an additional I/O slot.
- Front access: Two communication connectors are located on the CPU faceplate for programming or serial devices.
- Power-supply path: The standard Series 90-30 power-supply connector provides the third serial path.
- Protocol planning: Port parameters must be matched to the programmer, HMI, or serial peer connected to each channel.
Rack and power integration
- Slot use: The CPU occupies one slot in a modular CPU baseplate.
- Baseplate span: A configured system may include the CPU baseplate and expansion or remote baseplates up to the eight-baseplate limit.
- Power load: The module draws 890 mA from the 5 VDC backplane supply.
- Operating range: The module operates from 0 to 60 °C in the approved enclosure arrangement.
Supported control uses
- Machine sequencing: The instruction rate and discrete capacity suit multi-station assembly and packaging lines.
- Material handling: Conveyors, sortation cells, and transfer systems can coordinate local and expanded I/O.
- Process skids: Configurable analog tables support equipment that combines discrete interlocks with measured process values.
- Serial integration: Programming stations, operator interfaces, and serial devices can share the three onboard ports.
