Functional Description

IS230TURSH2CA is an I/O Module developed by GE. It is a part of the Mark VIe control system. It features a TMS320C32 digital signal processor (DSP) that digitally filters input data and converts it into 32-bit IEEE-854 floating-point format for high precision and reliability.

Form Factor and Mounting

This module is designed for DIN-rail mounting, allowing for secure, compact, and organized installation inside industrial control cabinets. DIN-rail mounting is a standard method that simplifies wiring and maintenance in automation systems.

Processor and Signal Processing

• At the core is the Texas Instruments TMS320C32 DSP (Digital Signal Processor). This high-speed processor plays a critical role in:
• Digitally filtering input signals to ensure clean and accurate data.
• Performing pre-processing of signals before further analysis or transmission.
• Converting the filtered data into a 32-bit IEEE-854 floating-point format, which supports higher precision and a wider dynamic range for numerical computations.

Data Storage and Communication

• Once processed, the data is stored in a dual-port memory system. This memory is specially designed to allow simultaneous access from two different sources:
• One side is accessed by the on-board TMS320C32 DSP, which handles real-time data acquisition and processing.
• The other side connects to the VME bus, a high-speed data bus used by the Mark VIe control system for communication with the main controller or other system components.
• This architecture ensures efficient, high-speed data transfer between the module and the rest of the control system, minimizing latency and maximizing real-time performance.
