Question does there exist a micro controller that you can put PLC ladder logic into.

Thank

'Sort of', a PLC is basically just a pre-programmed micro-controller - but you can't run PLC code with out writing a progam to do so. Seems a pretty pointless exercise though, if you want a PLC then just use one?.

All the ladder logic must be compiled/assemble into the MCU binary native format so that the microcontroller just execute them like normal software.

Of course no one can stop you placing a ladder logic interpreter inside the MCU.

For a freeware solution on PIC and AVR, looks here:

Ladder Logic for PIC and AVR

Supports 16F628, 876, 877; Mega64, mega128

Thanks to Jonathan Westhues for this great contribution.
