IS230SNIDH1A Innovation Series Digital Signal Processor Board GE

The IS200DSPXH1BDB is a Digital Signal Processor Board for the General Electric Innovation Series.

The IS200DSPXH1BDB, also known as a DSPX, has the ability to control both the bridge and motor regulators and all of the system’s gate functions. It can also control the general field control applications for an EX2100 exciter. The DSPX board can process logic functions and power and has the ability to interface with other boards. Several memory components that come standard with other Innovation PCBs also come standard with this board. It uses NVRAM, RAM, add-only memory, and flash memory that can store a wide range of information.

On the front faceplate of the IS200DSPXH1BDB, there are two LED indicators that have been labeled Status and Fault. There is a 12-pin male connector labeled EMUL and a 16-pin male serial port that is labeled HS Serial. There are numerous diodes, capacitors, and resistors on this PCB. There are 3 transistors, 6 ferrite beads, a card slot connection labeled P1, 16 integrated circuits, and 7 resistor networks.

When installing the IS200DSPXH1BDB into a system, it is vital to ensure that it is installed into the correct card slot on the rack. The card slots on the Innovation rack are specifically keyed to specific boards. If a board that it is not paired with is placed into the slot, the board or the slot may become damaged. It is also important to remember to maintain antistatic procedures when handling or installing the DSPX to avoid damage due to a buildup and release of static electricity.
