DS200FCGDH1B GE LS2100, LCI CONTROL & GATING

Description:

DS200FCGDH1B is a Gate Distribution and Status Card manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark VI Series used in GE Speedtronic Control Systems. An interface board for a 6-pulse phase-controlled, non-reversing bridge is called the Gate Distribution and Status Card (FCGD). Through the VME backplane, it transmits feedback and diagnostic data after receiving SCR firing data from the DS200DSPC (DSPC, the VME processor) chip. The FCGD receives a multiplexed cell status signal from each bridge leg and decodes and de-tributes the cell gating signals for each bridge leg. Additionally, it takes in bridge feedback signals, scales them, and then transmits the voltage, frequency, and current status data back to the DSPC board.

This DS200FCGDH1B printed circuit board product offering manufactured by General Electric was, as mentioned before, originally designed and manufactured for placement in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The Mark V Series that this DS200FCGDH1B printed circuit board or PCB for short is considered a member of has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, gas, and steam turbine automated drive assemblies, as evidenced thorough the full extended series name provided above. This DS200FCGDH1B printed circuit board or PCB for short's greater Mark V Series, while pertinent to newer-developed alternative energy technologies, must still be considered an obsolete General Electric legacy product series, as it has been discontinued for manufacture on a broad scale due to its obsolescence in one of the many years after its original Mark V Series product release. This DS200FCGDH1B PCB's Mark V Series, while generally obsolete due to its legacy series status, still offers many highly-sought products, as it exists as one of the final General Electric Mark product series to make use of the company's patented Speedtronic control system technology. This DS200FCGDH1B PCB additionally does not exist as the originally-developed product of its intended Mark V Series functionality; that would be the DS200FCGDH1 parent printed circuit board missing this DS200FCGDH1B product's singular B-rated functional product revision.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The DS200FCGDH1B is a gate distribution and status card (FCGD). Developed by General Electric for their Mark V board series, this card can be installed in a number of GE brand drives. When installed, this card acts as an interface system for the six pulse, phase controlled non-reversing bridge. The DSPC (digital signal processing card) relays information to this board to decipher. From this, signals regarding diagnostic information and system feedbacks are produced. These feedbacks are then sent out using the drive’s integrated VME backplane. This DS200FCGDH1B product offering collects a large amount of data from the drive’s integrated DSPC. Signals received by the board are translated into cell gating signals. All system bridge legs receive this cell gating signals and return multiplexed cell status information to this card. Feedback signals are also received and scaled by the FCGD board. Three FGPA boards send feedback signals via fiber optic connections found on board. Included feedback are frequency, voltage, and board status information. An integrated IMOK LED status indicator provides users with basic system status.

Manufacturer provided installation parameters for the board should be met to minimize risk of device malfunction or error. Board function is dependent upon wiring the system correctly. An illustrated guide to wiring and installing DS200FCGDH1B is available in the device’s manual and datasheet. The entire Mark V series was originally provided technical support by General Electric. AX Control’s knowledgeable sales team is ready to assist with all of your DS200FCGDH1B needs! To receive current prices on this part, or any other part or repair, please contact our staff by phone or email. This DS200FCGDH1B printed circuit board product offering's above-attached information is primarily reminiscent of general Mark V Series instructional documentation and a visual inspection of the DS200FCGDH1B device itself. This strategy was deemed necessary due to this DS200FCGDH1B product offering's legacy series status and its concurrent lack of available instructional manual materials online for the research purposes of this page. With this in mind, the DS200FCGDH1B functional product number itself can be considered a great source of DS200FCGDH1B Board hardware component and component specification information, as it codes for a range of details in a series of consecutive functional naming chunks. For instance, the DS200FCGDH1B functional product number begins with the dual-functional DS200 series tag delegating this DS200FCGDH1B product's normal Mark V Series assembly as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details revealed through use of the  DS200FCGDH1B functional product number include this Mark V Series PCB's:
