Description
Product Description
The GE IS200AVGBG1A / IS200AVGBG1AAA is a General Electric Speedtronic Mark VI AV300i Gate Driver Board, also described as a Gate Driver Amplifier Card. It is designed for GE turbine control applications and belongs to the IS200 Mark VI board family. The board provides gate-drive interface circuitry for the associated drive/control assembly and is intended for integration into GE Mark VI turbine control equipment.
The board has three board-edge connectors with 2-pin, 8-pin, and 6-pin configurations. It also contains multiple transistors, metal-film resistors, ceramic capacitors, and a dedicated metal assembly. Its physical construction includes several factory mounting openings and a central cutout associated with the board’s mechanical installation arrangement.
The supplied unit is listed as Open Box. Because the IS200AVGBG1A is discontinued legacy hardware, replacement should be based on the complete part number, revision, board layout, connectors, and the existing Mark VI drive/control configuration.

Troubleshooting & Safety
🛠️ Troubleshooting
- Verify the complete board number before installation.
- Inspect the 2-pin, 8-pin, and 6-pin connectors for bent or damaged pins.
- Check the PCB for cracked components, damaged solder joints, corrosion, or physical impact.
- Compare connector positions and board layout with the original unit.
- Confirm that the replacement is intended for the same Mark VI drive/control configuration.
- If the system reports a gate-drive fault after replacement, verify associated drive wiring, interface connections, and system configuration rather than assuming the PCB is defective.
⚠️ Safety
- Disconnect and isolate all applicable power before removing or installing the board.
- Follow site lockout/tagout procedures.
- Verify that hazardous DC-bus and drive voltages have been discharged before handling the assembly.
- Use ESD protection when unpacking and installing the PCB.
- Do not energize the system with connectors incorrectly positioned or partially inserted.
- Perform appropriate functional checks after installation before returning the turbine-control equipment to service.
