Features:
- Six Mbytes of battery-backed user memory
- 96 MHz floating-point processor with 0.4 µs Boolean execution
- 12K mixed discrete points plus up to 8K analog I/O
IC697CPX928 is optimized for Series 90-70 applications whose program and data exceed the one-Mbyte CPU class.
The larger retained memory resides with the processor rather than on a separate rack module.
Cooling, power, and battery maintenance become central installation considerations for this memory-dense CPU.
The General Electric IC697CPX928 Series 90-70 96 MHz CPU with 6 Mbytes memory may remain available for quotation and installed-system support from Apter Power.

Program and retention planning
- Capacity: Six Mbytes of battery-backed memory support extensive logic and data sets.
- Flash: A 256 Kbyte nonvolatile user area is also built into the CPU.
- Allocation: Controller configuration assigns memory among program blocks and reference data.
- Battery service: Retention depends on the required battery and correct replacement procedure.
Rack and reference scale
- Discrete capacity: The CPU handles 12K inputs and outputs in any mix.
- Analog capacity: As many as 8K analog references can be configured.
- Backplane format: Option and I/O modules communicate through the rack-mounted VME C.1 architecture.
- Supported families: IC697 and IC660/IC661 I/O are included in the supported system scope.
Thermal installation requirements
- Forced airflow: The 6 Mbyte CPX928 installation uses the required forced-air arrangement where required.
- Fan assemblies: Series 90-70 rack fan options are selected for the available panel supply.
- Clearance: Air paths above, below, and across the rack must remain unobstructed.
- Temperature effect: High enclosure temperature and heavy rack loading increase the need for checked airflow.
Supported large-project uses
- Complex process control: Six Mbytes support extensive sequencing, calculations, recipes, and retained production data.
- Plant material systems: Large conveyor and transfer networks can use the 12K discrete-reference capacity.
- Multi-program machines: Equipment with many program blocks and operating modes can remain in one controller image.
- Series 90-70 migrations: Memory-heavy legacy projects can retain their IC697 I/O and smart-module architecture.
