About the IS200VAICH1CBA
The IS200VAICH1CBA is an Analog Input VME card produced by General Electric. This card is no longer supported by GE and may be hard to find. AX Control does try to keep it in stock though. The IS200VAICH1CBA printed circuit board or PCB for short here is a member of the greater Mark VI Turbine Control System Series, as should have been specified in the brief IS200VAICH1CBA product description paragraph above. This product series must be treated as a significant functionality-focused upgrade from the Mark V Turbine Control System Series of a similar full extended series name, given the fact that it exists with a set of possible functional applications in the control systems and management systems of General Electric-accepting gas, steam, and wind turbine automated drive assemblies; adding onto the lone steam and gas-centered environments seen with the earlier-released Mark Series iteration. This IS200VAICH1CBA PCB product's greater Mark product series is lauded specifically for its status as one of General Electric's last-developed Mark product series utilizing the patented Speedtronic technology first seen with the rollout of the Mark I.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200VAICH1CBA has the ability to provide 20 analog inputs and 4 outputs that are equally divided between 2 termination boards. There are cables that typically connect the terminal boards to a VME rack that this card is located on. This card has the ability to be used with TMR (triple modular redundant) or Simplex functions. This board does require another circuit board, the TBAIHIB or earlier, to operate well. The IS200VAICH1CBA is a slim printed circuit board (PCB) that is attached to a faceplate. This board has three status LEDs on its faceplate. These are labeled run, fail, and status. This board is meant to plug into either a TMR or Simplex system rack assembly. There are two brackets on the top and bottom of the faceplate that can be used to help hold and mount the PCB into a card slot. Then it can be secured using the captive screws on the top and bottom of the front panel. The board itself is not in an enclosure of any type.
The IS200VAICH1CBA has a lot of circuitry that makes up the board. There are four processors, 6 relays, and lots of capacitors, diodes, resistors, transistors, and integrated circuits that make up this board. There is also a metal plate that is mounted to this board using four screws and four nuts. To prevent this circuitry from receiving a static shock, be sure to wear an antistatic wristband when handling this card. The majority of IS200VAICH1CBA Board-specific hardware component and component specification information stored within the bounds of this IS200VAICH1CBA personalized product page here has been primarily reminiscent of a diligently-guided visual inspection of the IS200VAICH1CBA product itself, which was deemed as necessary given the Mark VI Series' oftentimes infringed upon and therefore generally online-unavailable product series status. Given this lack, the IS200VAICH1CBA functional product number itself can actually be rolled out to exist as a decent source of IS200VAICH1CBA PCB hardware information, as it was specifically designed by General Electric to indirectly relay a number of relevant details through a series of consecutive functional naming elements. For instance, this IS200VAICH1CBA product number starts with the dual-functional IS200 series tag exposing the IS200VAICH1CBA Board's normal Mark VI Series assembly as well as its domestic original location of GE manufacture. Some of the relevant IS200VAICH1CBA qualities exposed in this manner include its:
- VAIC functional product acronym
- Group one Mark VI Series grouping
- Conformal PCB coating style
- Three-fold revision table
