About the DS3800NVIA1G1C

The DS3800NVIA1G1C board component from General Electric is part of the Mark IV Speedtronic system.  This system was the first Speedtronic turbine control to use microcontrollers as part of the control design.   The Mark IV uses a triple modular design that relies on two out of three votings on all outputs.  By doing this, the system significantly reduces downtown and significantly increases reliability.   While the Mark IV is no longer supported by the OEM, our company maintains on-hand stock of a significant percentage of Mark IV components, ready for immediate delivery. 

The DS3800NVIA1G1C board is a one-sided rectangular board.  It has through-hole (TH) mounted components on a pre-drilled board ready for installation.   The unit also has standoffs preinstalled so that users can easily install any necessary auxiliary components.  However, please note that auxiliary boards are not included in this purchase.  

The DS3800NVIA1G1C is populated by diodes, TP test points, transistors, resistors, capacitors, integrated circuits, and Augat connectors.  The board also has a line of twelve pins that will help support and communicate with the auxiliary board.   A backplane is located on one short edge.  On the other side, the board has three toggle switches that will be available for  use even after the board has been installed into the rack.   The board does not have any sort of connected faceplate panel. 

More information about the DS3800NVIA1G1C or about the Mark IV system, in general, can be found through original GE manuals and user guides. These products were originally provided by the OEM.
