About the DS3800NADA1F1F

The DS3800NADA1F1F is a PCB from General Electric designed to be used as an analog-to-digital converter card within a Speedtronic Mark IV system. The Mark IV, for gas and steam turbine control, is designed with integrated chipsets and intentional redundancies which help keep the system running even when one PCB experiences an electronics issue. The Mark IV can be used to sequence the turbine system and its auxiliaries and can create a fully automated startup, shutdown, and cool down procedure.

The DS3800NADA1F1F is designed with twenty-six integrated circuits, including an analog-to-digital converter chip at U3. This chip offers a choice of three data output formats: a single, parallel 12-bit word; two 8-bit bytes or serial data. Standard control inputs and fast bus access times ensure easy interfacing to microprocessors and digital signal processors. The DS3800NADA1F1F is also built with oscillators, dual positive-edge-triggered D flip-flops, and up/down binary counters.

The DS3800NADA1F1F has one amber LED and three TP test points located along the right edge. It has been built with two extractor clips built in, and three PCB reinforcement crossbars made of anodized aluminum to stiffen the board. The DS3800NADA1F1F has been factory-drilled in each corner.

The DS3800NADA1F1F can communicate with other PCBs via a male and a female connector. These are located on either end of the board. The DS3800NADA1F1F has two potentiometers and two lines of spare plated through holes.
