About the DS200AAHAH1ADC
The DS200AAHAH1ADC is an ARCNET Connection Board manufactured by General Electric as part of the Speedtronic Mark V LM Turbine Control Series product line. The Mark V Series that this DS200AAHAH1ADC printed circuit board or PCB for short belongs to is a rather self-explanatory General Electric product series, as it exists as a GE product series with specific application in the control and management systems of popular and compatible steam and gas turbines. This DS200AAHAH1ADC device's greater Mark V Series, while pertinent to turbine-minded applications, has to be considered obsolete as a whole as it is truthfully a now-obsolete legacy product series discontinued for manufacture by General Electric in one of the many years past its initial rollout. This DS200AAHAH1ADC device's greaetr Mark V Series, while obsolete as a whole, is still quite the hot commodity on the figurative automated industrial marketplace, as it is one of the lastly-developed General Electric Mark product series to make use of the customized Speedtronic control system technology first seen with the release of the previous Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200AAHAH1ADC is often referred to as an AAHA board. It typically functions as an interfacing unit between different I/O cores or external modules to the <R> Control Engine. It gives these interfacing units access to the ARCNET. There are normally two AAHA boards that are used with the <R> core. The first AAHA board acts as a connection between user interfaces and the <R> core. There is an APL connector on the AAHA that links it to the UCPB daughterboard that is in the <R> core on the UCIA board. The second AAHA board acts as a way to connect the <R> core to the COREBUS. It facilities active communication between the I/O cores and the <R> Control Engine which is in the <R> core. The APL connection on this AAHA connects to a PANA daughterboard. Generally, this DS200AAHAH1ADC device's voltage suppression and limitation strategy involves its normal Mark V Series assembly's incorporation of a series-standardized selection of voltage-limiting hardware components such as differing styles of capacitors, resistors, transistors, diodes, and finally specialized integrated circuits. This specific DS200AAHAH1ADC product offering is actually not the originally-designed product of its specific Mark V Series functional role; that would be the DS200AAHAH1 parent ARCNET Connection Board missing all three of this DS200AAHAH1ADC device's three significant product revisions.
The DS200AAHAH1ADC is a very small daughterboard that has a total of three communication ports on the top side. The far-left port is an EBNC port that isn’t often used. Next to the EBNC are the ARCBNC-B and ARCBNC-A ports. These two ports are connections to the ARCNET. On the bottom of the board are three pin connectors. The first pin connector is a 2-pin 2PL jack. In the center of the bottom edge is the 10-pin APL jack. Next to the APL is a 9-pin EPL jack that is also not used very often. This DS200AAHAH1ADC product offering, as with any General Electric Mark V Series device made available to our extended new and reconditioned inventory here, is accompanied by a functional product number detailing a number of its more-basic hardware specifications in a selection of consecutive functional naming chunks. Some of the pertinent hardware information revealed in this DS200AAHAH1ADC PCB's functional product number includes its normal Mark V Series assembly, its domestic original manufacture location, its conformal PCB coating style, and finally the aforementioned three-fold revision table. As detailed in the DS200AAHAH1ADC Data Sheet made available for you convenience in our manuals tab above, this DS200AAHAH1ADC ARCNET Connector Board's connectors specifically include:
- The 2PL TCPS board in <R> Power Connector
- The APL ARCNET connector between the AAHA board and PANA boards
- The ARCBNC A ARCNET Communication A to BNC connector
- The ARCBNC B ARCNET Communication B to BNC connector
- The EBNC Connector
- The EPL Connector
