About the DS3800DGPA
DS3800DGPA circuit board is a gas generator turbine circuit card produced by GE (General Electric) for the Speedtronic series. This card was made as part of the Mark IV turbine control system series by Speedtronic. The Mark IV Series that this DS3800DGPA printed circuit board or PCB for short belongs to specifically, as you have more than likely been able to deduce based off of its full extended series name alone, has a set of specific applications in the management systems and control systems of General Electric-compatible gas and steam turbine automated drive assemblies. With this being the case, this DS3800DGPA product's Mark IV Series must be considered a legacy General Electric product series normally, as its original manufacture was discontinued for production by the trusted automated industrial retailer due to a manufacturer-identified full-series functional obsolescence in one of the many years beyond its initial GE product series release. While generally obsolete, the Mark IV Series containing this DS3800DGPA product here is still very much desirable on its greater automated industrial promotional marketplace, as it is one of General Electric's final-released Mark product series to incorporate the patented Speedtronic control system technology into a number of its different offerings.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3800DGPA is a daughter board, or a small circuit board attached a bigger circuit board, extending the circuitry of a bigger circuit board. The bigger circuit board can be the system’s main circuit board, or motherboard, or it may be a bigger auxiliary board. The rectangular green board has three (3) openings for cylinder-shaped capacitors which are labeled as C1 to C3. The board has twenty-six (26) small gold-colored square capacitors. On the board are six (6) rectangular blue and gray resistors labeled as RI to R6 along the right side of the circuit card. The circuit card contains ten (10) open places for small cylinder-shaped resistors labeled as R12 to R21. This circuit board also contains twenty-nine (29) gold-colored jumper pins which are all labeled as one (1) to twenty-nine (29) along the left side of the circuit card. These jumper pins enable the operator to change the card and to reconfigure its functions whenever needed. DCPA 6DA02 is written on the bottom side of the card. Also written on the card is its number, DS3800DGPA 6BA02 on the right side of the board.
AX Control will send the DS3800DGPA daughter board in a static bag, which gets rid of any energy accumulated during shipping to ensure user safety. All technical assistance for the circuit board must be provided by GE, the original manufacturer. Given this DS3800DGPA product's General Electric functional designation as a daughter board, it is a bit surprising that this DS3800DGPA device is not considered to possess any special assembly version. This DS3800DGPA product is not followed online by a high number of originally-pertinent instructional manual materials; almost certainly caused by this DS3800DGPA device's initial attribution to a now-obsolete legacy product series in the Mark IV. With this being the case, this DS3800DGPA product's DS3800DGPA functional product number itself can be adopted for supplemental hardware identification purposes, as it codes for many of these individual relevant details in a GE-specified selection of functional naming segments. For starters, this DS3800DGPA functional product number here begins with a dual-functional initial naming tag in the DS3800 series tag indirectly delegating this DS3800DGPA product's normal Mark IV Series assembly on top of its more standardized domestic location of original General Electric manufacture. This is followed in the DS3800DGPA functional product number through an iteration of the DGPA functional product acronym created to serve as a convenient promotional shorthand alternative to the lengthy DS3800DGPA product number itself.
