Product Role & System Fit

In programmable logic controller (PLC) architectures, the CPU module is the core interpreter of logic, orchestrating every decision and control action. The IC697CPM925-BC, part of the GE Fanuc Series 90-70 platform, is engineered to serve precisely that role within mid- to large-scale industrial control systems. This CPU module combines robust processing power with floating point arithmetic capability, enabling complex control, analog scaling, and advanced algorithm execution that traditional integer-only CPUs struggle to handle.

Designed for insertion into a single slot of a Series 90-70 rack backplane, the IC697CPM925-BC forms the brain of automation systems in manufacturing plants, processing facilities, utilities, and infrastructure control applications where determinism and reliability are essential. Its compatibility with the broader GE Fanuc family — including discrete and analog I/O modules from both the IC660/IC661 and IC697 product lines — makes it a versatile choice when engineers seek seamless expansion or modernization of existing PLC investments.

The floating point processing capability of this module delivers precise computation for tasks such as PID control loops, complex motion control, scaling of analog signals, and real-time data manipulation. In scenarios like process batch control or multi-axis coordination in packaging systems, the IC697CPM925-BC ensures that arithmetic-intensive logic does not become a bottleneck, thereby helping maintain consistent cycle times and predictable system behavior.
