Functional Description

DS200SPCBG1A is a multi-bridge signal processing card developed by GE. It is a part of General Electric Drive control system. In multi-bridge drive systems, the SPCB interfaces between the dmc SDCC card and the MBI-IA boards. A multi-bridge signal processing card is a type of hardware card designed to process multiple signals simultaneously. This type of card is commonly used in applications such as digital signal processing, telecommunications, and data acquisition systems. The card typically includes multiple analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), along with digital signal processing (DSP) capabilities. The ADCs convert incoming analog signals into digital form, while the DACs convert digital signals back into analog form for output.

The DSP capabilities of the card allow for advanced signal processing functions such as filtering, modulation, demodulation, and frequency analysis. The multi-bridge design allows for multiple signals to be processed simultaneously, increasing overall processing efficiency. Multi-bridge signal processing cards can be used in a variety of applications, such as in medical imaging, telecommunications networks, and industrial automation systems. They are often used in conjunction with specialized software applications for configuring and controlling the processing functions of the card.

Product Functions

• Sending encoder feedback signals to SDCC
• Converting analog process control voltage/current signals to voltage signals (5 V) and sending the voltage signals to the SDCC
• Fiber-optic transmit and receive capabilities for bridge-to-bridge communications, as well as fiber-optic mode transmission for master-master systems
• Sending and receiving synchronization signals, either via an isolated DLAN hardware architecture or via a network.

Features

• The two encoder follower circuits include 3-channel optocoupled differential interfaces for channel A, channel B, and incremental encoder or digit tachometer marker pulse inputs.
• PAL (programmable array logic) circuits decode the input signals to generate up/down and marker pulse output signals. The SDCC receives these output signals via 7PL. PAL inputs can be either 5 V or 15 V differential signals.
• SP1 and SP2 of the analog process control input channels are operational amplifier gain circuits. These circuits convert 1-5 mA, 10-50 mA, or 2-30 V process control input signals into -5 to + 15 V SDCC signals.
• The SPCB card contains a DIP switch labeled SW1, Berg-type jumpers, and six pots labeled P1 through P6.

Encoder follower circuits

• A 3-channel opto-coupled differential interface for channel A, channel B, and marker pulse inputs from an incremental encoder or digital tachometer is included in each of the two encoder follower circuits.
• PAL (programmable array logic) circuits decode the input signals to generate up/down and marker pulse output signals. Connector 7PL sends these output signals to the drive control board. PAL inputs can be either 5 V or 15 V differential signals.

Process Control Input Signals

• SP1 and SP2 of the analog process control input channels are operational amplifier gain circuits.
• They convert process control input signals ranging from 1 to 5 mA, 4 to 20 mA, 10 to 50 mA, or 2 to 30 V into 5 to +5 V signals that are fed to the drive control board.

Adjustable Hardware

• Berg-type (manually moveable) jumpers are identified by a JP nomenclature on the SPCB board, as is a DIP switch, designated SW1, and six pots, P1 through P6. The jumpers are used for manufacturing testing or to provide customer options.
• The majority of the jumper options have been predetermined at the factory. These positions are indicated on the test data sheets that come with each controller (typically found in the drive door pocket).
  During startup, the potentiometers (pots) can be adjusted to optimize drive performance. The straight-up (12 o'clock) position is the default setting. (The maximum rotation from the straight-up position is approximately 150 degrees in either direction.)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is DS200SPCBG1A?
It is a multi-bridge signal processing card developed by GE

What does SDCC refer to?
SDCC refers to the Signal Data and Control Card, which is an electronic circuit board that is used for control and communication purposes in industrial processes.

What are encoder feedback signals?
Encoder feedback signals are electrical signals that are generated by an encoder device and provide information about the position and/or speed of a motor or other rotating machinery.

What is an optocoupled differential interface?
An optocoupled differential interface is a circuit that uses optical signals to transfer electrical signals across an isolation barrier. It is commonly used in industrial control applications to protect sensitive electronic components from electrical noise or voltage spikes.
