Description
The GE FANUC IS200BICIH1ADB is a Bridge Interface Controller Board (BICI) designed for GE Innovation Series drives and Mark VI turbine control-related power conversion systems. It provides bridge control interface functions, gate signal processing, feedback handling, and communication between the control system and power bridge assemblies.
The BICI board works with GE bridge power interface assemblies and manages signals associated with IGCT-based power converters. It processes bridge firing commands, status feedback signals, and protection-related information to support reliable operation of high-power drive systems.
The IS200BICIH1ADB includes multiple auxiliary circuits mounted on the board and interfaces with the Innovation Series control assembly backplane through P1 and P2 connectors. It is commonly used as a replacement spare for GE industrial drive and power control equipment.
