Description
1. Product Description
The DS200SDCCG5A is a high-performance drive control card designed by General Electric (GE) for its Mark V Speedtronic turbine control systems. This model, the DS200SDCCG5A, serves as the primary controller for drive or exciter applications, integrating advanced circuitry and software to manage motor control, signal processing, and communication with other system components. It features three microprocessors—including an 80C186, 80C196, and TMS320C25 DSP—for specialized tasks like math-intensive operations and dual-port RAM for concurrent data access. With five EPROM connectors (four factory-configured, one user-programmable), the DS200SDCCG5A offers flexible configuration for industrial automation, energy, and manufacturing sectors.
