About the DS3800HXTA1C1C

General Electric developed the DS3800HXTA1C1C as a Series 6 Transmitter designed to fit into a Speedtronic Mark IV system. The Mark IV employs triple redundant sixteen-bit microprocessors and integrated chipsets to maximize running reliability and to protect the turbine control system. The Mark IV can sequence turbines and auxiliaries to create a fully automated startup. Shutdown and cooldown procedures can also be handled by the Mark IV.

The DS3800HXTA1C1C is built with forty integrated circuits. This includes a quad differential line receiver from Texas Instruments (AM26LS33ACN) that has low-power Schottky circuitry and complementary output-enabled inputs. The AM26LS33ACN meets or exceeds the requirements of ANSI TIA/EIA-422-B. It also includes Texas Instruments SN75172N, which is a quad differential line driver.

The DS3800HXTA1C1C has two LEDs, both labeled (parity ok/chain ok.) It has one TP test point (labeled dcom.) It has been built with 8 pairs of spare plated through holes (PTH.) This allows the user the option of adding a component.

The DS3800HXTA1C1C has five resistor arrays. These arrays may be designed for voltage division or they may be on the board to act as digital to analog converters. The board also has two connectors(one male and one female,) located at either end of the board, to allow for communication with other PCBs. DS3800HXTA1C1C has been built with multiple ceramic covered metal film resistors and small capacitors.

Installation guidelines for the DS3800HXTA1C1C were made available in technical support publications provided by the original manufacturer. We suggest reading through to the manufacturer's data sheet and manual before installation.
