Appendix B: BRX MPU Power Budgeting

1 BRX MPU Power Budget
The BRX MPU has a limited amount of power available to supply the expansion modules.
When designing a BRX system the power budget should be taken into account to be sure that
2
your system will perform as expected.
A general rule of thumb is that when there are 32 or more points of relay expansion modules
3
in a system, a power budget calculation must be performed to ensure that there is
enough available power to accommodate all expected modules.
4
On the following pages you will find a worksheet and power budget tables to help you determine
your system total power budget requirement. If the calculations exceeds the total available
power, you may need to consider using an additional MPU or using a Remote I/O solution to
5
satisfy the system requirements.
Examples are also included to help show how the calculations should be performed.
6
WARNING: It is extremely important to calculate the power budget. If you exceed the power budget,
7
the system may operate in an unpredictable manner which may result in a risk of personal injury or
equipment damage.

1. Find the Watts available for the BRX MPU that you will be using. Put this value in line 1 MPU section of the worksheet.
10
2. If you are using a POM (Pluggable Option Module), find the watts consumed and put this
value in line 2 - POM section of the worksheet.
11
3. For each Expansion Module that you will be using, find the watts consumed and put this value
in the appropriate slot that the module will reside in, lines 3 through 10.
4. Add the values located in the POM Watts and Slot 1 through 8, lines 2 through 10. Write the
12
value of this sum in line 11 - Total Watts Consumed.
5. Subtract line 11 - Total Watts Consumed from line 1 - MPU Watts Available. Write this value
13
in line 12 - Watts Remaining.
6. If the value in line 12 - Watts Remaining is a negative number, your system is consuming more
14
Watts than the MPU is capable of providing. This system would be unsafe as designed. You will
need to reconsider your design. If the remaining wattage is zero or more than zero, the system design
is good.

This example shows that the selected configuration will exceed the power budget. This is an
unsafe configuration and will not work as designed. One way to correct this is to add Remote
I/O to this system for additional I/O capability.

the system may operate in an unpredictable manner which could result in a risk of personal injury or
