Functional Description

DS3800HVDB1H is a Video Driver Card designed and developed by GE. It is a part of Mark IV control system. Mark IV utilizes a triple-redundant configuration for critical control functions, enhancing system reliability and fault tolerance. Based on microprocessors, the system allows for precise monitoring, control, and diagnostics. Includes built-in protective features to respond to abnormal operating conditions, ensuring turbine safety.

Features

• Equipped with a modular connector at one end and retention levers at the other, ensuring secure installation and connectivity within the control rack.
• Located between the retention levers is a 20-pin connector, which includes retention latches for added stability. These latches operate using a cam action mechanism, effectively locking the board into place when inserted into the system’s backplane.
• This design ensures that the modular connector on the board properly aligns and connects with the corresponding connector on the backplane, allowing for secure transmission of control signals and power supply voltage to the board. Once operational, the board receives input signals, processes them, and then transmits the output signals required for system functionality.
• As a video driver board, facilitates the interface and management of visual data within the Mark IV control system. 

Components

• Multiple EPROMs (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) – These store firmware and configuration data necessary for board operations, allowing updates and system-specific programming.
• 15 Jumper Pins – These jumpers provide hardware configuration flexibility, allowing customization of the board’s behavior to suit various application needs.
• Integrated 20-Pin Connector – Used for direct communication or additional interface needs, further enhancing the board's integration within the Mark IV system.
