DS200MBHAG1A

Product Description

As alluded to previously, this DS200MBHAG1A printed circuit board product offering from was originally designed and manufactured for use in the now-obsolete Mark V Speedtronic legacy series originally manufactured by trusted industrial giant General Electric. This DS200MBHAG1A Printed Circuit Board was originally manufactured for the specific functional role of a Multi-Bridge Hub Communications Board within its greater Mark V Series automated drive assembly, although it does exist as an edited version of the originally-developed DS200MBHAG1 parent printed circuit board of this functionality. This DS200MBHAG1A printed circuit board or PCB for short, despite possessing a functionally-enhanced assembly, is slated to make use of standard Mark V Series assembly version, as represented by the presence of the DS200 initial series tag at the beginning of the DS200MBHAG1A functional product number.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The DS200MBHAG1A is a multi-bridge hub communications board developed for the DC2000 drive series by General Electric Industrial Systems. When installed, the card provides users with fiber optic communications, both sending and receiving signals. Communications between multi-bridge system drives and adjacent drive systems are possible when this unit is installed. Interfacing capabilities are built into the circuits and links found on DS200MBHAG1A. The edges of the board are lined with:

• Seven 5-Mbaud fiber optic data links.
• Three fiber-optic receivers
• A 4-port terminal strip

In addition to the hardware components lining the edges of this DS200MBHAG1A product offering, this DS200MBHAG1A Multi-Bridge Hub Communications Board contains its own internal power supply that provides voltage power for the assembly of this DS200MBHAG1A product alone. This power supply is characterized in available instructional manual materials as a 100 kHz, + 5 V dc switching style of power supply, and is typically provided power from an unregulated power source with a 5 W power consumption. In terms of this DS200MBHAG1A device's customizable hardware, a singular manually-moveable Berg-type hardware jumper has been inserted on the base circuit board of this DS200MBHAG1A product offering, offering customization or selection of this DS200MBHAG1A product offering only during factory testing; it is not meant to be customized or even accessed by the consumer. In addition to this DS200MBHAG1A PCB's manually-moveable hardware jumper, over twenty test points have been included in its assembly for the recognition and diagnosis of significant functional fault conditions. Before making any final purchase decision on this DS200MBHAG1A product offering, it is crucial to realize that its originally-introduced performance specifications and dimensions have no doubt been altered through its attachment of an A-rated functional product revision.
