DESCRIPTION:

IS200DSPXH2BEB is a Digital Signal Processor Control Board manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the EX2100 Series used in Excitation Control Systems. The IS200DSPX Digital Signal Processor Control Board (DSPX) is the primary controller for the bridge and motor regulator and gating functions for Innovation Seriesä drives. It also controls generator field control functions for the EX2100ä Excitation Control. The board provides logic, processing, and interface functions. A high-performance digital signal processor (DSP), common memory components, and an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that executes specialized logic operations are all included in the DSPX board.

STANDARD HARDWARE FEATURES:

The Digital Signal Processor (DSP) in the DSPX operates at 60 MHz. During standard operation, the DSP receives four external interrupts:

• Stack overflow (INT0)
• Inner loop load pulse (INT1)
• Two configurable inputs (INT2, INT3)
• FLASH memory for DSP boot images, code execution, and configurable item storage, along with system history records
• RAM for data storage and code execution
• NVRAM for nonvolatile data storage
• Add-only memory for board revision identification

SPECIALIZED HARDWARE FUNCTION:

The DSPX board's specialized tasks are provided by bespoke logic in Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) or ASICs with the necessary supporting circuits. Most specialized and auxiliary tasks can be found in a single ASIC.

• Two 5 Mb/s ISBusTM interfaces are employed as either master or slave
• A single asynchronous TTL interface including RX, TX, and TXEN/RTS data signals for a computer-based configuration tool
• A single asynchronous TTL interface with RX, TX, and RTS data signals for a programming board
• The values of I/O, such as bridge, motor, or generator voltages and current VCOs, tachometer counters, and discrete inputs, are captured by an inner loop load pulse signal. Additionally, it can synchronize software, gating outputs to bridges, and ISBus channels.
• To record the values of other application VCOs and, if desired, the tachs, an application loop load pulse signal is employed at a sub-multiple or multiple of the inner loop load pulse.

ONBOARD FIRMWARE:

• The boot loader, which manages the power-up process, shouldn't be reloaded in the field.
• The specific control functions for the drive or exciter product are defined by the application code. Through the Exciter's Tool port, this code is loaded.
• The toolbox is used to load configuration parameters. Excitation parameter loading occurs via the Unit Data Highway. Drive parameters are imported into ACL_, if necessary, through a serial port, ISBus, or Ethernet.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

How does a DSP differ from a general-purpose microcontroller?

While both can perform similar tasks, a DSP is optimized for high-speed numeric processing, especially with real-time data. DSPs often feature specialized instructions and architectures for the efficient handling of complex mathematical operations.

What are the key features to look for in a DSP Control Board?

Key features include processing speed (measured in MHz or GHz), the number of processing cores, memory capacity, input/output interfaces, power consumption, and support for specific algorithms or applications.

What programming languages are typically used for DSP programming?

DSP programming is commonly done using languages such as C, C++, and assembly language. Some DSPs may also support high-level languages like Python or MATLAB for algorithm development.
