About the DS200DSFBG2A

The DS200DSFBG2A is a Driver Shunt Feedback Board manufactured for Mark V SPEEDTRONIC Turbine Control Systems. The Mark V was a later version of GE’s popular Speedtronic system and the second to offer TMR control. The MKV can be set up in either Simplex or TMR form to offer a variety of control options depending on the needs of the turbine system, and since software-implemented fault-tolerance is part of the MKV design, this is still available even in Simplex systems. The MKV also offers online maintenance and built-in diagnostic capabilities. As you have most likely been able to deduce based off of its full extended series name, the Mark V Series that this DS200DSFBG2A PCB belongs to has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, gas and steam turbine automated drive assemblies. While this DS200DSFBG2A PCB does feature the Speedtronic control system technology, its greater mark V Series must be considered obsolete as it is a legacy product series discontinued by the original manufacture in one of the many years since its original inception.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The DS200DSFBG2A is a Driver Shunt Feedback board.  It is a wide rectangular board that is sparsely populated with components. The board is factory drilled in each corner and also has over a dozen mounting eyelets placed within the body of the board. These mounting holes are ringed with conductive material and are designed for connections to device emitters and device gates.  Other board components on the DS200DSFBG2A include a transformer component, several transistors, stab-on connectors, and plug connectors. The board uses primarily metal film resistors, but also has several resistor network arrays. Capacitors tend to be made of ceramic material but vary in design. They include ceramic disk capacitors. The board also has LED indicators and diodes. The board has no fuses or any type of configurable hardware. Proper installation techniques and additional information about the board are covered in technical support publications originally provided by GE like manuals and user guides. 

While this DS200DSFBG2A printed circuit board product offering's various voltage-limiting hardware components and component specifications are certainly important to remain cognizant of, their presence on this DS200DSFBG2A personalized product page is more telling of this DS200DSFBG2A PCB's lack of internet-available instructional manual materials than it is of their central importance to the DS200DSFBG2A Driver Shunt Feedback Board. Given this DS200DSFBG2A Mark V Series product offering's lack of original instructional documentation online, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that this DS200DSFBG2A functional product number itself can be considered the primary source of DS200DSFBG2A Board hardware component and component specification information; as it codes for these details in a series of consecutive functional naming chunks. For example, the DS200DSFBG2A functional product number starts off with the dual-functional DS200 series tag delegating this DS200DSFBG2A Device's normal Mark V Series assembly as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other specific hardware specifications revealed through the DS200DSFBG2A functional product number include this Mark V Series PCB's:

• DSFB functional product abbreviation
• Group 2 Mark V Series product grouping
• Normal PCB coating style
• A-rated primary functional product revision
