The DS200DACAG1ACC is an AC/DC conversion board manufactured by General Electric (GE) for its Mark V series control system. It is mainly used in the EX2100 excitation module. Its main function is to convert the 115V AC input power into 125V DC output power, providing stable DC power for the control system. Meanwhile, it has a local energy storage function. In the event of a control power failure, it can supply backup power to the system for a certain period of time, ensuring the continuous operation of key systems. The circuit board adopts a standard printed circuit board design, with various electronic components on the surface, including capacitors, resistors, chips, etc., which achieve its functions through welding and circuit connections.
