About the Siemens 6ES7515-2AN03-0AB0

The Siemens 6ES7515-2AN03-0AB0 is the S7-1500 CPU 1515-2 PN. Siemens's data sheet gives 1 MB of work memory for the program and 4.5 MB for data, two PROFINET interfaces (IRT with a two-port switch, and RT), 6 ns per bit operation, and configuration in STEP 7 TIA Portal; it needs a SIMATIC Memory Card. SiePortal lists it as an active product.

What is the 6ES7515-2AN03-0AB0 used for?

It controls machines and lines as the central CPU of an S7-1500 station, and is one of the CPUs an S7-300 can be migrated to.
