Key Technical Specifications

This GE IS200BICLH1B IS200BICLH1BBA card operates from a 24V DC power supply. It provides 24 mixed signal channels for system interfacing. The unit measures 22 cm in length, 17 cm in width, and 4.5 cm in height. Its total weight reaches 0.7 kg without any packaging materials.

The GE IS200BICLH1B IS200BICLH1BBA includes 16 digital inputs and 8 analog inputs. Additionally, it features one 50-pin ribbon connector for host interface. A single 6-pin terminal block connects the DC power input. The card contains 1 FPGA, 16 optocouplers, 8 analog conditioners, 8 voltage regulators, 24 resistors, and 16 capacitors.

GE IS200BICLH1B IS200BICLH1BBA stores energy using one electrolytic capacitor. This capacitor provides 100 µF at 35V rating for input filtering. Consequently, the card maintains stable readings during 20 millisecond power fluctuations. Therefore, measurement accuracy remains high in noisy industrial environments.

Design and Integration

Both the GE IS200BICLH1B and IS200BICLH1BBA versions share identical interface circuitry. These cards use four-layer PCB construction with isolated input banks for noise immunity. Consequently, the GE IS200BICLH1B IS200BICLH1BBA operates reliably from -10°C to +55°C ambient temperature.

For installation, you need M3 screws for the four mounting holes. The card draws 200 mA typical current from the 24V DC supply. Each analog input includes software selectable ranges. We recommend using shielded cables for all analog field connections.

Practical Application

This interface card connects field sensors to a turbine controller. It reads digital and analog signals from limit switches and transmitters. The GE IS200BICLH1B IS200BICLH1BBA then routes conditioned signals to the main processor. Therefore, it serves as a flexible interface for GE control systems.
