2-1 Internal Memory in the CPU Unit
The internal memory in the CPU Unit consists of built-in RAM, built-in non-volatile RAM and built-in
Flash Memory. The built-in RAM and built-in non-volatile RAM are used as execution memory and the
built-in Flash Memory is used as backup memory.
The built-in RAM is the execution memory for the CPU Unit.
The user program and parameters are stored in the built-in RAM.
Data is unstable when the power supply is interrupted.
The built-in non-volatile RAM is the execution memory for the CPU Unit. It is used to retain the data
when the power supply is interrupted.
I/O memory is stored in the built-in non-volatile RAM.
Data Memory Area (D), Holding Area (H) and Counter Area (C) are retained even if the power supply is
interrupted with no battery installed.
