Siemens 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA0 SIMOTION D435 Control Unit
01Product Identification
Siemens 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA0 is a legacy SIMOTION D435 drive-based programmable motion controller with Standard performance for up to 32 axes. This initial article provides eight digital inputs, eight configurable digital inputs or outputs, four DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces, two PROFIBUS interfaces, two Industrial Ethernet interfaces, and one option slot.
02Key Features
Design and Functions
- Controls up to 32 axes in the supported legacy SIMOTION project environment.
- Combines PLC, motion-control, and SINAMICS drive-control functions in a drive-based platform.
- Four DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces connect supported drive components and feedback devices.
- Two PROFIBUS interfaces support field and synchronized communication.
- Two Industrial Ethernet interfaces support engineering, diagnostics, and plant-level integration.
- The option slot supports the documented communication expansion hardware.

04System Integration
- Match the complete 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA0 article number; do not merge it with the later 0AA1 revision.
- Confirm SIMOTION firmware, SCOUT release, CF card, licenses, option board, DRIVE-CLiQ topology, PROFIBUS configuration, and Ethernet parameters.
- Record all axes, technology objects, motors, encoders, I/O, addresses, synchronization, alarms, and safety data.
- The official description for 0AA0 does not list the two USB interfaces stated for 0AA1, so connector assumptions must be based on the actual nameplate and hardware.
- After approved work, test every axis, drive, feedback channel, I/O point, communication interface, alarm, safety function, and machine sequence.
05Applications
- Legacy 32-axis SIMOTION D435 machines.
- Packaging, printing, converting, handling, and synchronized production equipment.
- Installed SINAMICS S120 systems requiring the initial 0AA0 controller version.
- Lifecycle review and engineered migration projects with full project backups.
06Lifecycle
- The current Siemens record shows End of Product Lifecycle for 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA0.
- Siemens states that the product is cancelled without a replacement product.
- Do not treat 0AA1 or D435-2 as a direct replacement; hardware interfaces, firmware, engineering software, licenses, project conversion, and mechanical installation must be reviewed.
- Preserve the original CF card image, project, network settings, drive parameters, and safety records.
- An approved migration requires full commissioning of motion, drive, PLC, communication, diagnostic, and safety functions.
FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What is Siemens 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA0?
It is the initial article version of the legacy SIMOTION D435 Standard-performance drive-based motion controller.
How many axes are supported?
The documented maximum is 32 axes.
Which interfaces are listed for this exact version?
The exact 0AA0 description lists four DRIVE-CLiQ, two PROFIBUS, two Industrial Ethernet, and one option slot.
What is its lifecycle status?
The current Siemens record shows End of Product Lifecycle.
Is a replacement product stated?
No. Siemens states that the article is cancelled without a replacement product.
Is 6AU1435-0AA00-0AA1 identical?
No identity equivalence should be assumed. The later 0AA1 description includes two USB interfaces and has a different listed net weight, so hardware and project compatibility must be verified.
