About the DS200DMCAG1AGB
The DS200DMCAG1AGB is a circuit board component fabricated by General Electric for use in the Speedtronic Mark IV and Mark V systems. The first of the GE Speedtronic systems to offer a triple modular redundant design, the Mark IV significantly reduced downtime caused by equipment issues. The DS200DMCAG1AGB is available from AX Control as liquidated new-used stock and as reconditioned used units. This DS200DMCAG1AGB printed circuit board is definable by its functional description as a Gen/Log/Key Interface Board, as it is referred to in original Mark V Turbine Control System Series instructional manual documentation. This DS200DMCAG1AGB printed circuit board is not the first General Electric of its kind to be adopted into the Mark V Series, however; that would be the DS200DMCAG1 Gen/Log/Key Interface Board missing this DS200DMCAG1AGB product's three significant product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200DMCAG1AGB is an Interface board within its greater Mark V product series, as mentioned above. It is a large rectangular board with factory-made drill holes located along the board’s edges including in each corner of the board, as well as in the board’s center. This DS200DMCAG1AGB Gen/Log/Key Interface Board is marked for alignment on two edges, and carries the GE logo and several identifying codes. This DS200DMCAG1AGB Mark V Series unit has one female and four male vertical cable connectors, as well as several vertical pin header connectors. Additionally; there are several stab-on connectors located near a cluster of high-voltage electrolytic capacitors in the upper left corner of the board.
Additional components on the surface of the DS200DMCAG1AGB include jumper switches, fifteen resistor network arrays, a toggle switch marked “reset,” four LED units with four, three, or two lights per unit, one inductor coil, and two heat sinks with mounted components. There is an auxiliary board mounted to the DS200DMCAG1AGB’s surface that is populated with several integrated circuits, and an additional fifty integrated circuits on the board’s primary surface. It is a bit of a surprise that this DS200DMCAG1AGB Gen/Log/Key Interface Board does not possess any sort of Mark V Turbine Control System Series special assembly, as similar Mark V Series products that feature auxiliary boards tend to at least achieve a Mark V Series motherboard assembly status. In terms of various standard voltage-limiting hardware components, the DS200DMCAG1AGB uses diodes, ceramic and polyester vinyl capacitors, and metal film resistors, and all of the aforementioned hardware selections receive protection from the DS200DMCAG1AGB PCB's standard normal style of printed circuit board protective coating.
