LinPAC-8000 Series
● LinPAC-8000 Overview
2.4. LinPAC-8000 Series
The LinPAC-8000 is a second generation Linux-based PAC from ICP
DAS and is equipped with a PXA270 CPU (520 MHz) or LX 800 CPU
(500 MHz) running a Linux kernel 2.6 operating system, multiple
communication interfaces (VGA, USB, Ethernet and RS-232/485) and
1/4/8-slot or 0/3/7-slot backplane for both high performance Parallel
I/O modules (high profi le I-8K series) and Serial I/O modules (high
profi le I-87K series).
The LinPAC-8000 gives users all of the best features of both
traditional PLCs and Windows capable PCs. The LinPAC-8000
includes a VGA port allowing users to choose a regular LCD monitor
for display of HMI application, USB port to connect with Keyboard,
Mouse, USB device for storage or touch monitor, microSD/
microSDHC memory for storage of program and data.
Compared with the first generation LinCon-8000, not only is the
CPU performance improved have been added (from 206 MHz to
520 or 500 MHz) and uses an upgraded OS from Linux kernel 2.4
to Linux kernel 2.6, but many reliability features, such as dual LAN,
redundant power input, and dual battery backup SRAM, etc. That’s
the powerful and fl exible embedded control systems available.

Main Components:
Main Control Unit (MCU)
The MCU is the powerhouse of the LinPAC Series. Each MCU
comprises a Central Processor Module (CPM), a power supply,
and a 1, 4, 8-slot or 0, 3, 7-slot backplane for I/O modules.
The CPM is powerful integrated processing engine comprising a
CPU, RAM and ROM, and an option of communication interfaces
including Ethernet, RS-485, CAN bus and FRnet.
I/O Modules
There are two types of I/O modules, Parallel and Serial. The
Parallel I/O modules (high profile I-8K series) are high-speed
modules and have to be installed in slots of the LinPAC. The
Serial I/O modules (high profi le I-87K series) can be installed in
slots or Expansion Units (RU-87Pn).
Embedded OS
All LinPAC have Linux kernel 2.6 OS inside, most of the popular
features in Linux are included, such as open source, stability and
free of charge. LinPAC supports for rich software & development
solutions: LinPAC SDK, GNU C Language, JAVA and GUI
software, etc.
Remote I/O Expansion
LinPAC uses built-in RS-485 and Ethernet ports to connect
RS-485/Ethernet remote I/O units (RU-87Pn/ET-87Pn) or
modules (I-7000/M-7000/ET-7000). In this confi guration, LinPAC
expands the I/O very easily.
Using CAN or FRnet communication module, LinPAC can connect
to CAN bus devices, remote I/O units or FRnet I/O modules for
deterministic control system.
