About the DS3800NFCF1C1C
The DS3800NFCF1C1C is a PCB manufactured by GE for the Mark IV Turbine Control System Series. The Mark IV was created for steam and gas turbine control, although it did not quite yet extended to the full functional range of the coming Mark VI Series, which encourages wind turbine control and management system interfacing as a bonus. The Mark IV can keep the turbine system working within safe parameters and can also automate such procedures as startup and shut down. This DS3800NFCF1C1C printed circuit board or PCB for short's greater Mark IV Turbine Control System Series does have to be considered an obsolete General Electric product series generally, given the fact that its production was actually discontinued by General Electric in one of the many years beyond its initial rollout due to a retailer-found functional series-wide products obsolescence. This DS3800NFCF1C1C printed circuit board's greater Mark IV Series is still able to attract consistent demand in relevant automated industrial markets however, as it is one of the final-developed GE Mark Suite product series to make use of the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen in the late 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3800NFCF1C1C is built with 42 integrated circuits. This includes up/down binary counters, flip-flops and 8-bit static MOS RAM with single and +5 V power supply. It has twenty-one transistors, fifteen LEDs (fourteen red and one amber,) and two jumpers. The DS3800NFCF1C1C is designed to accept an auxiliary board (DS3800DFCF) which when installed gives the DS3800NFCF1C1C access to another five jumpers plus three ammeters. The auxiliary board is supported by four nylon pins and locked in place by seventeen board-to-board connectors. Given the fact that this particular DS3800NFCF1C1C printed circuit board product offering makes use of no characteristic metallic mounting faceplate, it cannot be considered to exist within a General Electric Mark Series VME Rack Mounting Assembly, as most standard Mark IV Turbine Control System Series products seem to. Also seemingly missing from the base printed circuit board medium upon which all of this DS3800NFCF1C1C product's functional components are attached upon. Generally, this DS3800NFCF1C1C device receives a standard level of voltage suppression and protection as ensured by a selection of hardware components and component specifications standardized to the Mark IV Series, including various types of resistors, transistors, diodes, and specialized integrated circuit.
The DS3800NFCF1C1C is alignment marked A through L. It is factory-drilled to give the user mounting options. It is designed with two plunge switches along one edge. These are marked "rest" and "step." There are three connectors located on the board to allow the DS3800NFCF1C1C to communicate with other PCBs. This includes a 10-pin male vertical connector as well as two (218A4637-P4 0027) connectors placed along one short edge. The DS3800NFCF1C1C has twenty-nine TP test points. It has been built with multiple metal film resistors of differing values and several 8542 +/-2 M/E 0022 200V capacitors. Technical support publications such as data sheets and manuals referencing the DS3800NFCF1C1C were originally provided by GE. If needed, these publications may be the best source for installation guidelines. While this DS3800NFCF1C1C device's originally-printed instructional manual materials are generally unavailable due to this DS3800NFCF1C1C device's Mark IV Series' functionally obsolete nature, the DS3800NFCF1C1C functional product number itself can be treated as a decent supplementary source of DS3800NFCF1C1C Board hardware information, as it codes for various DS3800NFCF1C1C Board details through a series of consecutive functional naming elements. For instance, the DS3800NFCF1C1C functional product number begins with the dual-functional DS3800 series tag delegating this DS3800NFCF1C1C PCB's normal Mark IV Series assembly as well as its domestic location of original General Electric production.
