It’s not really an “industrial control” device. By brief inspection, it’s a BGA SoC breakout with 1.8V or 3.3V logic levels, directly from the SoC to the outside world.

An industrial device like a PLC would have galvanically isolated 24VDC digital inputs, 0-10V and 4-20mA galvanically isolated analog I/Os and galvanically isolated, short-circuit tolerant 24V high-side driver outputs, a case with a DIN mount and screw terminals.

This device is no more “industrial” than any other SoC.
