DS200FCGDH1B Gate Power Distribution and Status Card (FCGD)
The DS200FCGDH1B is a gate power distribution and status card (FCGD) developed by General Electric for its Mark V board family. It is primarily used for installation in many GE branded drives and as an interface system for six-pulse phase control of irreversible Bridges.
The main functions of the card include collecting data from the drive’s integrated DSPC (Digital Signal Processing Card), decoding it, and generating signals about diagnostic information and system feedback. In addition, the DS200FCGDH1B is responsible for converting the received signals into cell gated signals, which are then received by the system bridge branch and return multiplexed cell status information. At the same time, the card also receives, scales and sends feedback signals including frequency, voltage and board status information.
The DS200FCGDH1B also has a zero-frequency torque hold function, which means that even when the inverter output speed is 0, it can generate an exciting current, so that the motor can maintain a certain output torque. In addition, it also provides a variety of ways of parameter self-tuning function, as well as flexible analog input and output, to provide users with more choices and convenience.
