Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 1RQ
What does the memory map for a typical PLC processor consist of?
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Plan Intro
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):
- Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
- PLC is programmable that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
- The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
- When compared to general Personal Computer (PC), a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
- The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that run by control programming language.
Explanation of Solution
Memory map for a PLC processor:
- The memory map for a typical PLC processor includes different sections such that each section is allotted to its specific operations.
- The main sections of PLC such as Allen-Brandley includes rack based memory map and tag based memory map.
- Based on the sections of PLC divisions, the organization comes into picture.
- The memory space in each and every section is split into two different categories such as memory space for program files and memory space for data files.
