Product Description
This DS200FCGDH1 printed circuit board was originally manufactured by General Electric specifically for placement in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series, as mentioned just above. This DS200FCGDH1 printed circuit board or PCB for short's Mark V product Series is considered a legacy General Electric product series, as its manufacture was discontinued in one of the many years since its initial GE product series release. While this DS200FCGDH1 PCB's greater Mark V Turbine Control System Series is obsolete as a legacy product series, it is also one of the final General Electric Mark product series to make use of their patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen alongside the release of the Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s. As you may have been able to guess based off of its full extended series name, the Mark V Series that this DS200FCGDH1 printed circuit board product offering belongs to has specific connections in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, gas, and steam turbine automated drive assemblies. This DS200FCGDH1 printed circuit board is the originally-developed product of its intended Mark V Series functional role, as proven through its DS200FCGDH1 functional product number's notable absence of any trailing, revision-indicating alphanumeric digits.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The General Electric DS200FCGDH1 is a gate distribution and status card. Developed for GE’s Mark V series of boards, this card can be accessed using the VME board on a number of GE drives and exciters. When installed, this board acts as an interfacing medium for a six-pulse phase-controlled non-reversing bridge. Information on SCR firing from the digital signal processing card is received by the this board. Feedback and diagnostics received in these signals is then returned using the VME backplane. As it interacts with the VME system, this board should be installed into the VME rack that also houses the DSPC (digital signal processing card). As with any Mark V Series product offering available here, this DS200FCGDH1 PCB belongs to a now-obsolete legacy product series, and is not offered online with a slew of pertinent instructional manual materials. With this being true, the DS200FCGDH1 functional product number itself can be considered a strong primary source of some of this DS200FCGDH1 Board's general hardware component and component specification information.The DS200FCGDH1 functional product number describes various DS200FCGDH1 Board details in a series of consecutive functional naming chunks. For example, the DS200FCGDH1 functional product number begins with the DS200 series tag delegating this DS200FCGDH1 product's normal Mark V Series assembly version as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details revealed through the DS200FCGDH1 functional product number include this DS200FCGDH1 device's:
- FCGD functional product acronym
- Conformal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- Lack of any significant product revision
A wealth of information is passed through the DS200FCGDH1 board. Once data has been received, the board works to decode and distribute the cell gating signals needed for each bridge leg. In turn, bridge legs send back a multiplexed cell status signal. Feedback signals are also transmitted to and scaled by this board. These signals are received via fiber optic connections to three FGPA boards. After decoding feedback, all voltage, frequency, and status information is relayed back to the DSPC board. When the system heartbeat is normal, a green LED IMOK (I am okay) indicator will be illuminated on the board. DS200FCGDH1 as well as the drive it uses have installation parameters that should be met. By following these, accident risks and device damages are greatly limited. For a complete guide to installing and wiring the board to its new drive, please refer to the series manual as well as the device datasheet. The manufacturer of the Mark V series, General Electric, originally provided technical support for this device. AX Control’s trusted sales team is happy to help with all of your DS200FCGDH1 needs.
