Product Description
The GE Logic Element Board DS3800HLEA features a modular connector for attachment to a drive and retention levers to hold the board in the drive. The GE Logic Element Board DS3800HLEA also is populated with 10 indicator LEDs that are viewable from the front of the board and 3 jumpers. The board is populated with resistors and capacitors. It also features air dividers to direct the airflow over the components.
Another component on the board is a transistor to transistor logic (TTL) device. It serves as the interface logic between integrated circuits. The GE Logic Element Board DS3800HLEA is designed for easy installation in the drive. It is also easy to remove from the drive. This is helpful if the board must be replaced because the board is defective or has to be repaired or serviced. The design of the board also reduces the number of cables and power cables in the drive. Power cables can cause interference which can degrade the signals passed from board to board in the drive. Also, fewer cables allows for more free flowing air to cool the drive and prevent the buildup of heat.
The modular connectors automatically align at the bottom of the board rack. Then, the installer presses the board into the rack and at the same time the modular connectors are pressed together. Press the retention levers down to lock the board. When you power on the drive, the 10 LEDs are lit briefly as a test to indicate if the LEDs are operational.
