Product Overview
Upgrade your legacy TSX Micro PLC system with the Schneider TSXP575634M non-isolated serial link processor. This module serves as the brain of your automation network, offering 32 Kwords of internal RAM for both program and data storage. A PCMCIA card slot allows expansion up to 128 Kwords additional data and 64 Kwords program memory. With an execution time of 0.5 µs per Boolean instruction (without PCMCIA card) and a throughput of 1.05 Kinst/ms, the TSXP575634M delivers reliable performance for medium-scale discrete and analog I/O control. Its robust internal memory and modular design make it an ideal replacement for obsolete TSX Micro controllers or an upgrade to enhance processing capacity.

Installation & Setup
Mount the Schneider TSXP575634M into a standard TSX Micro rack using the provided DIN rail clips. Ensure the power supply delivers 440 mA at 5 V DC to the module’s backplane connector. When adding a PCMCIA card, insert it gently into the slot until it clicks into place – the card can provide up to 128 Kwords additional data storage. The module supports up to 2 racks of 12 slots or 4 racks of 4/6/8 slots; verify your system configuration before wiring. Connect the serial link via the two female mini DIN ports at 19.2 kbit/s using shielded twisted-pair cable. For inrush protection, ensure the power supply can handle 38 A peaks at 240 V or 100 V.
Real-World Applications
In a packaging line, the Schneider TSXP575634M processes 512 discrete I/O signals for sensors and actuators, while the 24 analog I/O handle temperature and pressure transducers. Its fast Boolean execution (0.5 µs) ensures tight cycle times. For a water treatment plant, the PCMCIA expansion provides additional data logging memory, and the CANopen bus connects variable frequency drives. As a replacement for an older TSX Micro processor, the TSXP575634M offers a direct drop-in upgrade with enhanced memory and serial communication, minimizing downtime and reconfiguration costs.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Before ordering, confirm your existing rack type (2x12 slots or 4x4/6/8 slots) and verify the power supply capacity (440 mA at 5 V DC). If you require additional data storage, purchase a compatible PCMCIA card separately. The TSXP575634M is available from UBEST Automation – a trusted source for industrial automation spares.
