3. ControlLogix 5580 Controller Differentiators
Secure Digital Card
2 GB optional nonvolatile memory storage for the user program and tag data
Multi-core CPU
Optimized for faster system performance
New faster memory with larger caching
Onboard Display and Status Indicators
Provides enhanced diagnostics and troubleshooting
USB Port
Provides easy access for programming, troubleshooting, online edits and updating the controller firmware
Access Door and Reset Button
Helps protect and provides easy access to the Reset button and SD memory card
Ability to return the controller to the out-of-the-box state
Integrated Energy Storage Module
Removes the need for a battery
Dual vector floating point (VFP) co-processor
Provide additional performance for complex motion and math-intensive applications
MEMORY
The 1756-L8 incorporates faster RAM than the 1756-L7
The 1756-L8 uses double data rate (DDR) to send data on the rising and falling clock edge
The 1756-L8 uses both L1 (x4 for each core) and L2 cache; 1756-L7 uses L1 cache only
1 Gb Embedded Ethernet Port
Enables high-performance I/O and motion control out of the front of the controller
Integrated Motion on EtherNet/IP for motion applications up to 256 axes supporting 32 axes per ms
Enhanced Security Features
Digitally-signed and encrypted firmware
Controller change detection
Controller Audit logging
Role-based access control

5. Controller Communications
Communications now separated from control
User control and motion tasks are no longer interrupted by communications
Previously 20% of the controller scan was used for CPU communications
Provides reduced complexity for user programming and task balancing
System Overhead Time Slice removed - Users no longer need to adjust
Communications no longer impacts controller performance!

6. ControlLogix 5580 Runtime Memory Usage
Previously, design recommendations instructed users to reserve no less than 20% of available memory for future firmware updates and for runtime memory consumers.
For example: MSG instructions, HMI Trends, Alarms, RSLinx®, Online Edits
The 5580 controller runtime memory consumers now separated from application memory freeing up application memory
In addition, the onboard memory is now increased

7. Programming Language Execution and Task Switching Enhancements
Controller Language Scan Times
Five LD routines with 1000 rungs each
Five STX routines with 1000 lines each
1000 ADD / SUB / MUL / DIV / MOD instructions
15,000 different program scoped tags, ie: Worst case

Structured Text Scan Time = Ladder Diagram Scan Time
It is easy to just create one instruction and copy paste it 1000 times. Doing so in an L8 will not result in the worst case scan time scenario (due to caching). This test uses new tags for each instance of an instruction.
