Description
Product Overview
The Applied Materials 0190-26873 is identified in available technical and product records as a motion-control CPU card associated with the Delta Tau Turbo PMAC2 platform. This type of controller executes motion programs and coordinates multiple axes in equipment that requires controlled, repeatable movement. In semiconductor manufacturing systems, motion-control hardware can support positioning stages, wafer-handling mechanisms, and other automated assemblies. The exact machine assignment should be confirmed against the equipment’s parts documentation and the installed board’s identification labels.
The Applied Materials 0190-26873 is associated with Delta Tau board number 603625-104 and a Turbo PMAC2 CPU configuration. Available records describe a CompactPCI-based implementation, but CPU speed, firmware revision, memory configuration, and interface details should not be assumed identical across every assembly carrying a related identifier. The board’s role is to process motion-control instructions and coordinate the system interfaces required by the installed machine. It should not be confused with a general-purpose PLC CPU or a standalone servo drive; its operation depends on the compatible control chassis, motion hardware, software, and stored configuration.
For maintenance teams, the Applied Materials 0190-26873 is most relevant when preserving an existing motion-control architecture. A replacement must match more than the board’s physical dimensions. Confirm the complete Applied Materials part number, Delta Tau board number, hardware revision, firmware, communications setup, and stored motion program requirements. Where the original controller remains operational, back up its configuration and motion programs before removal. Following installation, validate controller communication, axis feedback, homing, interlocks, and motion behavior under the equipment’s approved maintenance procedure before returning the machine to production.
Product Introduction (Non-Templated)
A motion controller replacement can power up correctly and still leave a machine unable to home, communicate with its host, or execute its established axis sequence. For the Applied Materials 0190-26873, matching the controller hardware and configuration is essential to preserving the installed motion-control architecture.
The board is associated with the Delta Tau Turbo PMAC2 platform and part number 603625-104. Verify the actual board revision, firmware, chassis interface, and stored program requirements before approving a replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the Applied Materials 0190-26873 used for?
It is identified as a Delta Tau Turbo -based motion-control CPU card used in compatible Applied Materials semiconductor equipment. Its role is to execute motion-control programs and coordinate motion-related operations within the installed system.
Q2: Can I hot-swap the 0190-26873 controller card?
Do not assume hot-swapping is supported. Follow the equipment’s shutdown, isolation, and electrostatic-discharge procedures. Confirm whether the controller configuration and motion programs have been backed up before removing the board.
Q3: Does this support firmware v3.1?
Compatibility with firmware v3.1 has not been verified for every 0190-26873 configuration. Available records mention configurations with different firmware identifiers. Check the original board label, installed firmware, and motion-control software requirements before transferring or upgrading firmware.
Q4: Is 603625-104 an exact replacement for 0190-26873?
The identifiers are associated in available product records, but confirm the board revision, connector arrangement, firmware, and equipment-specific configuration before treating them as exact equivalents.
Q5: Will a replacement card retain the original motion programs and parameters?
Not necessarily. Stored programs and configuration may depend on the original card’s memory, firmware, and backup procedure. Back up accessible motion programs, parameters, and communications settings before replacement, and verify the restored configuration during commissioning.
Q6: How should the replacement be tested?
Inspect the board and edge connector, verify the correct chassis and backplane, and check controller communication before enabling motion. Follow the approved machine procedure to validate feedback, homing, interlocks, axis coordination, and motion-program execution.
Q7: What information should I provide when requesting a replacement?
Provide the complete Applied Materials part number, the Delta Tau board number, hardware revision, firmware information, and clear photographs of the board labels and connectors. If available, include the equipment model and configuration records so the replacement can be checked against the installed system.
Procurement recommendation: For Applied Materials 0190-26873, prioritize matching the complete part number, Turbo board configuration, firmware, and stored motion-control requirements. A matching family name or similar-looking cPCI board is not sufficient evidence of compatibility.
