  • Publication number: 20080240136
    Abstract: A programmable controller includes a CPU (central processing unit) unit; and a communication unit coupled to the CPU unit via an internal bus. Each of the CPU unit and the communication unit provides a TCP/IP protocol. The internal bus is coupled to the internet layer of the CPU unit, and is coupled to the Ethernet driver of the communication unit. The internet layer of the CPU unit has a routing function which routes incoming data to at least one of the Ethernet driver of the CPU unit, or the internal bus, and the Ethernet driver of the communication unit has a switching function which routes incoming data to at least one of the internet layer of the communication unit, or the internal bus.
