About the DS3800NRCA1D1C
The DS3800NRCA1D1C is manufactured by GE as a component for the Mark IV series. This series was created for the management of gas/steam turbine systems, and it helps improve the efficiency of these systems by creating automated startup/shutdown/cool down procedures. The Mark IV also limits downtime caused by electronics failure with its basic design of integrated chipsets built with intentional overlaps on critical controls and protection parameters.
The DS3800NRCA1D1C has twenty jumper switches attached to the board. Five of these are located in a parallel line and may be set to “t” or to “f.” Many of the other jumpers are multi-positional. As an example, J19 may be set to four positions: 7in, 12in, 14in, or RES. Jumpers give the end user the ability to customize the board for their own use.
The DS3800NRCA1D1C is built with seven TP test points, three light emitting diodes (LEDs,) all red, and one trim potentiometer. The board also has two mating connectors which allow the DS3800NRCA1D1C to communicate to other PCBs. This includes one 218A4553-1 A/mp connector on the left edge and one 5-pin male connector on the right.
The DS3800NRCA1D1C is built with one transformer (marked 782E 3E2A,) two resistor network arrays, and one transistor. Resistors that populate the board are both ceramic-covered metal film and carbon composite. There are three amplifiers on the board. One is a Burr-Brown high current/high power operational amplifier, which is surrounded by a heat sink.
The DS3800NRCA1D1C is built with twenty-six circuits. This includes octal buffers and line drivers, which are designed to improve the density and performance of three-state memory address clock drivers, memory address drivers, and bus-oriented transmitters and receivers. It also includes Dual D-type positive-edge-triggered flip-flops. These have clock triggering that occurs at a voltage level that is not directly related to the rise time of the clock pulse.
Data sheets, manuals, and other technical support for the DS3800NRCA1D1C were provided by GE.
