IS200BICHH1A

Product Description

The IS200BICHH1A is a component manufactured by GE for the Mark VI system as a Bridge Interface and Control printed circuit board.  The Mark VI system is part of the successful Speedtronic series that GE developed starting in the 1960s with the Mark I. Some important information concerning the functionality and compatibility of the IS200BICHH1A PCB can be gleamed from its individualized part number. For example, the IS200BICHH1A can be identified as a bridge interface and control PCB following a discovery of this product's functional acronym; BICH. This is not considered a stock product, as it features a functional revision graded at "A".

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The IS200BICHH1A mounts into an Innovation series board rack. The Innovation Series is configured with T M-10 and T M-DC hardware and applications. These racks have LAN options and Boolean logic instructions that provide permissive diagnostic functions with no additional configuration. The IS200BICHH1A is built with a narrow front panel that has a plug connector (marked JM) located in its bottom third and a display in its top third.  The display allows for review of LEDs for signal observation, eighteen of which are present for interpretation with this IS200BICHH1A model.

The IS200BICHH1A features a number of other components important to normative automated processing, including:

• two backplane connectors, marked P1 and P2
• twenty-nine TP test points
• over forty integrated circuits
• two replaceable 250 V, 200 mA fuses

An over-reaching function of the IS200BICHH1A is to take multiplexed phase faults from FOSB boards and demultiply these aforementioned faults.  The IS200BICHH1A classifies faults into two classes, including bridge faults and BICH board faults.

As with many styles of General Electric printed circuit boards, IS200BICHH1A should be treated as a static sensitive board at all times.  The board should be removed from energized equipment before any type of maintenance begins.  An anti-static sleeve will be used by our warehouse team to protect the part during shipment.  Please review and follow all manufacturer safety procedures as they appear in publications like manuals or data sheets.
