GE DS3800HRDA Buffer Decoder Board

Part Number DS3800HRDA Manufacturer General Electric Country of Manufacture As Per GE Manufacturing Policy Series Mark VI/VIe Function Module Availability In StockDS3800HRDA is a Buffer Decoder Board manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark IV Series used in gas turbine control systems. A Digital Signal Output Buffer Decoder Board is an electronic component used to manage and distribute digital signals from one or more sources to multiple outputs. 

This board typically receives digital input signals, such as binary data or control signals, and then decodes and buffers these signals to ensure proper distribution to various destinations. The main functions of a Digital Signal Output Buffer Decoder Board are: Decoding: The board decodes the incoming digital signals, often in binary format, to determine which specific outputs should be activated or affected. This decoding process allows the board to identify the intended destination for each signal. 

 Buffering: The board also acts as a buffer, which means it temporarily stores and regulates the incoming signals before sending them to the appropriate outputs. This buffering helps ensure that signals are synchronized and delivered correctly, even when there might be slight variations in the timing of the incoming signals. Distribution: Once the signals are properly decoded and buffered, the board distributes them to the designated output channels. 

These output channels can be connected to various devices, components, or systems that rely on digital signals for specific actions or operations. Signal Integrity: The board may include features to enhance signal integrity, such as voltage level translation, noise filtering, and impedance matching. These measures help maintain the quality and reliability of the signals throughout the distribution process.
