CUBLOC User’s Manual CB405 PCB Dimension (CAD) CB405 PCB Dimension (PDF) CUBLOC CORE ORCAD Files (DSN) CUBLOC is an embedded controller platform that can execute BASIC programs and Ladder Logic simultaneously. This dual-programming capability allows developers to combine PLC-style real-time I/O control with flexible application logic inside a compact core module. The CUBLOC Core Module is designed to be mounted directly onto a custom PCB, much like a conventional MCU. This particular model is optimized for applications that require large data memory capacity, making it well suited for data-intensive control, logging, buffering, and complex state management. By leveraging on-chip multitasking, Ladder Logic can handle deterministic control tasks, while BASIC manages communication, data processing, and high-level system coordination. This makes the module ideal for OEM automation equipment, advanced embedded controllers, and custom systems where both high I/O performance and large memory resources are required.

A: The main reason is real-time control. Standard BASIC or C programs are not inherently designed for deterministic, real-time behavior. While it is possible to use an RTOS to address this, doing so adds significant complexity and requires specialized expertise. In the automation world, there is a much simpler and proven solution: ladder logic. This approach has been used and refined in PLCs for decades. Thanks to its continuous scan-loop structure, any change in sensor input immediately triggers the corresponding control logic, ensuring reliable real-time response. CUBLOC is the only embedded controller in the world that combines this PLC-style real-time ladder logic with BASIC programming, allowing both to run together seamlessly in a single system. Dimension
