About the DS3820LIMA
This particular DS3820LIMA printed circuit board product offering was originally designed and produced specifically for General Electric's Mark IV Turbine Control System Series, as was introduced previously in our brief product description above. The Mark IV Series that this DS3820LIMA printed circuit board product offering belongs to has to be defined as somewhat more restrictive in its potential functional applications when compared with other later Mark Series iterations, as later iterations starting from the Mark VI Series have extended possible applications in the control and management systems of wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies. The Mark IV Series that this particular DS3820LIMA printed circuit board or PCB for short belongs to is additionally generally considered obsolete, as it is truthfully a legacy product series discontinued for manufacturer due to a retailer-identified functional series obsolescence at some point in the many years beyond its initial rollout. With this being the case, it is generally quite a desirable product series on its greater automated industrial marketplace, given its simple nature as one of the lastly-produced GE Mark product series to include the patented Speedtronic control system technology in the assemblies of many of its various offerings.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3820LIMA is part of the Mark IV Speedtronic series produced by General Electric. This circuit board is relatively small and used in a larger series to control and run gas or steam turbines. A gas or steam turbine uses a large internal combustion engine to mix fuel and air to cause a contained explosion. This explosion creates a series of gases that are under a lot of pressure and force their way out of the engine causing the turbine to move at high speed generating a great deal of energy. The energy created by the moving turbine is then harnessed and used for a multitude of other purposes. The DS3820LIMA is a small circuit board with one large orange capacitor, two straight blue capacitors, and one large circular capacitor. Capacitors have an electrical field where it stores extra energy for the circuit board to use at a later time. Given the fact that this DS3820LIMA device belongs to a now-obsolete legacy General Electric product series, it is not followed online by any great amount of originally-printed instructional manual materials. With this being the case, the DS3820LIMA functional product number itself can be considered a decently strong source of DS3820LIMA Board hardware component and component specification information; coding for specific DS3820LIMA Board details through its characteristic collection of consecutive calling components. For instance, the DS3820LIMA functional product number begins with a dual-functional component in the DS3820 series tag indirectly describing both this DS3820LIMA PCB's special modular assembly version as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details in the DS3820LIMA functional product number include this DS3820LIMA PCB's:

The DS3820LIMA has two small light blue diodes and two larger dark blue diodes. A diode controls which way the direction flows. The DS3820LIMA has two male ports along one side. One male port is white with five gold metal the other male port is black with sides with ten metal ports. The DS3820LIMA has six light blue resistors with up to five color bands to show how much energy the resistors can restrict. The DS3820LIMA has a long black terminal with twelve screw tops. The DS3820LIMA has a red tower with a power port that attaches to metal bars with gold metal boxes with three grey wires attached to blue connectors on the circuit board. The DS3820LIMA is printed on the circuit board along with the emblem for General Electric. Where the circuit board is made (U. S. A.) is printed under the General Electric emblem. Each piece is also labeled with an alphanumeric code. AX Control suggests referring to the original manufacturer's manual for all safety and installation methods. Technical support for the DS3820LIMA was initially provided by General Electric.
