The GE IS200DSFCG1A Driver/Shunt Feedback Card (DSFC) is a specialized Printed Circuit Board (PCB) designed for use within GE’s Mark VI Speedtronic Turbine Control System and their associated Innovation Series AC Drives.1
It is a critical component that bridges the low-voltage control logic with the high-power switching components of a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD).
⚡️ Primary Function: Control & Protection for AC Drives
The IS200DSFCG1A combines two vital functions for controlling high-power AC motors, typically those used with large gas or steam turbines:2
1. IGBT Gate Driver3
- Role: The board provides the isolated driver signals required to rapidly and precisely turn the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) in a single phase-leg of the drive’s power bridge ON and OFF.
- Mechanism: It ensures the low-voltage Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signals from the main drive control board are converted into the high-power, isolated signals necessary to switch the IGBTs, which handle the massive current flow.
- Mounting: It is designed to mount directly onto the upper and lower IGBT modules in a phase leg, minimizing electrical interference and ensuring fast, clean switching.4
2. Shunt Feedback (Current Sensing)5
- Role: The board incorporates a shunt resistor and associated circuitry to accurately measure the current flowing through the power devices (the motor phase current).6 This is the “Shunt Feedback” component.
- Purpose: The measured current is fed back to the main control system for two main reasons:7
- Regulation: To allow the control system to precisely regulate the motor’s torque and speed.8
- Protection: To provide immediate data for fault detection (such as overcurrent) and quick shutdown of the drive to protect the expensive power components.9
