About the DS3800HXFC
The DS3800HXFC is a PCB from GE for the Mark IV series. The MKIV was created for gas or steam turbine control. It is designed on a framework of interconnected microprocessors that work to monitor the turbine system around the clock. The Mark IV Turbine Control System Series that contains this DS3800HXFC Circuit Board as a component device actually is not in active production by General Electric today, as it is truly a legacy General Electric product series whose original manufacture was halted due to a full series-wide functional products obsolescence in one of the many years beyond its initial General Electric Mark product series rollout. This DS3800HXFC Circuit Board is only definable as a simple circuit board due to a lack of original instructional documentation online detailing this DS3800HXFC Circuit Board product specifically; the HXFC functional product abbreviation can be considered a strong hint into its specific intended functional role.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3800HXFC has alignment lettering (A through J) marked on one edge. This is interspersed with triangular marks. The board is drilled in each corner, and nylon extractor clips are installed in two of these. Extractors are a benefit to technicians when working space is limited since the clips can act as handles for the PCB, but also give workers a lever point to push against the frame or chassis to pull the board from its position. The DS3800HXFC has three mating connectors, including one male vertical pin connector, one male right-angled connector (M83503/24-19 8535) and one multi-pin right-angled connector (218A4553-1 Amp 533002-1 8728.) It is built with one toggle switch, three light emitting diodes, or LEDs (one amber, two red,) four test points, and four vertical nylon spacers designed to carry the corners of an optional auxiliary board.
The DS3800HXFC has eight jumper switches on its surface. It has six resistor network arrays. The board has over forty circuits. This includes octal buffers & line drivers, quad differential line drivers with an input voltage of 15V and a 6k minimum input impedance, octal tri-state buffers/drivers/receivers with tri-state outputs and PNP inputs, and hex/quad D flip-flops with buffered clock and direct clear inputs. Your product will ship from the AX Control warehouse in a protective, static-reducing plastic bag or covering. GE provided technical support for the DS3800HXFC, including manuals and data sheets. While this DS3800HXFC Circuit Board product is not surrounded online by any Mark IV Series instructional manual materials, it still does find a way to benefits from its General Electric-specific original manufacture as the DS3800HXFC Circuit Board functional product number was actually intentionally developed by General Electric to demonstrate a number of relevant DS3800HXFC Circuit Board Board hardware characteristics, including this DS3800HXFC Circuit Board product's: domestic location of original General Electric manufacture on top of its normal style of Mark IV Series assembly. Both of these hardware specifications were actually revealed in an initial dual-responsible DS200 series naming tag. Some of the other relevant details imbued in this DS3800HXFC Circuit Board product number includes the HXFC-abbreviated PCB's HFXC functional product abbreviation.
