Zentraleinheit
Central unit
The central processing unit (CPU) ensures the data transfer between the subsystems. It manages
the remanent flash memory and the volatile RAM memory.
The flash memory (1 Mbyte) stores non-volatilely...
the
system
configuration including the AS-i configurations,
the runtime system (RTS),
the remanent data.
After power-on of the device the operating system runs in the SRAM memory (1 Mbyte).
The AS-i masters of AC1376 have one separate microcontroller each.
The AS-i master communicates with the connected slave modules on the AS-i bus according to
the AS-i specification.
