The Mitsubishi FX3U-128MR-ES/A and FX3U-128MT-ES/A are flagship PLC controller modules from the FX3U series, offering unmatched scalability and processing power for mid-to-large scale automation systems. These units feature a powerful 32-bit RISC processor, enabling a lightning-fast instruction execution speed of 0.065 µs per basic command and 0.642 µs per MOV instruction. With 128 built-in I/O points (expandable to 384), they support both relay (MR) and sink/source transistor (MT) output types, making them ideal for applications ranging from packaging lines to CNC machinery. The modules include extensive on-board memory with 7,680 auxiliary relays, 512 timers, and 235 counters, plus a dedicated high-speed counter array for encoder feedback up to 100 kHz. Advanced built-in functions such as PID control, positioning, and data logging are standard, while the RS-422 port allows seamless integration with Mitsubishi GX Works2 software for programming and diagnostics. Below are the detailed technical specifications derived from the original Mitsubishi datasheet.
