DS200DSPCH1ADA|Digital signal processor control board
The DS200DSPCH1ADA is a GE digital signal processor control board compatible with GE’s Mark V Speedtronic control systems for steam and gas industrial turbines. The DS200DSPCH1ADA provides communication bandwidth and processing power for direct control of the system’s power converter applications and high-performance drivers. The board has expandable inputs and outputs. The larger Mark V turbine control system family that the DS200DSPCH1ADA device belongs to is considered a legacy product family that is now obsolete, as it was eventually discontinued many years after its initial release. Given this, it can also be defined as one of GE’s final product lines to take advantage of the brand’s patented Speedtronic control system technology, which was first offered in the late 1960s along with the original version of the Mark V series. This DS200DSPCH1ADA PCB is not the original product of its intended Mark V series features; This will be missing the DS200DSPCH1ADA product with three important product revisions to the DS200DSPCH1 motherboard.
Hardware tips and specifications
The DS200DSPCH1ADA is a complex circuit board with multiple subboards. Given the presence of this DS200DSPCH1ADA product, its DS200DSPCH1ADA functional product number does not mention the special Mark V series assembly version, which is somewhat unusual, as is the case with other typical Mark V Series motherboards. One board is mounted parallel to the board surface using a bracket and the other board is mounted vertically. One of the subboards is used to provide scaling, buffering, isolation, and conditioning of the signals so that they can be accessed and used by the DS200DSPCH1ADA digital signal processor. The DS200DSPCH1ADA has two backplane connectors on the back edge. The board is built from an additional front panel with multiple I/O and LED indicators. The panel also has a reset button and two setting screws (top and bottom) that help lock the board in place when mounting it into the rack system. When replacing the board, make sure to disconnect all power from the driver first. An incorrect installation program may result in personal injury. Each LED indicator in this DS200DSPCH1ADA printed circuit Board product assembly has been affixed to their own factory-printed naming label, which references the DS200DSPCH1ADA instruction manual attached above for identification. Some specific LED indicators that are important for the functional fault diagnosis capability of this DS200DSPCH1ADA board include:
Green IMOK universal board function indicator
Red FAIL VME bus fault fault condition indicator
Amber LED1 indicator light
Amber LED2 indicator
Amber LED3 indicator
Amber LED4 indicator
While the above green and red LED indicators are named after their factory-printed naming labels and general Mark V Series automatic driver assembly applications, the above four amber indicators do not appear to have made a similar effort, as GE describes these leds as available through software options to define its individual projects.

FAQ about DS200DSPCH1ADA
Why are only the first two significant revisions of this DS200DSPCH1ADA product considered backward compatible?
Only the first two versions of the DS200DSPCH1ADA PCB can be considered backward compatible, as they both exist as functional styles for the Mark V Series product versions.
What type of PCB protective coating does the DS200DSPCH1ADA device achieve?
The base board of this DS200DSPCH1ADA PCB is protected by a thin, chemically coated conformally coated PCB coating.
