About the DS3800HDPA1A1A

The DS3800HDPA1A1A is a printed circuit board that General Electric made for display panels in the Speedtronic Mark IV series of turbine controls.

A display panel, alternately called an HMI (Human Machine Interface), helps the operators to better operate the turbine control. Display panels make it easier for the operators to monitor the operations of a turbine system. The ability to monitor turbine operations increases the productivity of the machine and informs the operator about any problems with the function of the machine.

The DS3800HDPA1A1A display panel board has two connector ports located on the board’s left edge. The connector ports are marked with the names JA and JB. The ports are also named with 218A4807-P12 23891AR, the part number. There is also a smaller connector port located on top of the board named JC with dark lettering. The board has 15 dark-colored diodes which also feature red lights. The diodes are named with the names CR1 through CR15 with dark lettering. This display panel board has 8 switches named with the names SW1 through SW8 with dark lettering. On the display panel board there are also 18 resistors that are striped with different colors on the board named with the names R1 through R18 with dark lettering. The display panel board contains an integrated circuit, or microchip, a device which contains several electronic components on a single chip.

The DS3800HDPA1A1A display panel board is shipped enclosed in a package which will get rid of the static energy before the part is handled by the user.
