IC697VAL314
GE
Overview
The IC697VAL314 is an automation component from GE. It is part of GE's industrial automation product portfolio.
Application & Technical Notes
As an automation component, the IC697VAL314 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where the GE product portfolio equipment is installed. It performs a defined automation function within the control system and is selected to match the installed GE platform.
Specific electrical and mechanical ratings depend on the exact configuration and suffix of the part; the original datasheet should be consulted for the definitive specification.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Inspect terminals and connectors for corrosion or looseness, and confirm the module seats correctly in its carrier. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the IC697VAL314, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine GE stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Confirm mechanical and electrical compatibility with your GE product portfolio installation and the intended function. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Specifications
IC697VAL314 Isolated 12-bit Analog Output Board Features Four or eight fully isolated analog outputs Up to 1,500V isolation, channel-to-channel and channel-to-VMEbus 12-bit resolution Selectable voltage output ranges: ±2.5V, ±5V, ±10V, 0 to +2.5V, +5V, or +10V Voltage outputs protected up to ±20V continuously; transients up to ±50V Load capacity of 10mA for voltage outputs across the full ±10V range Available with 4-20mA, 0-20mA, or 5-25mA current loop outputs Voltage and current loop output accuracy of 0.08% Optical data coupling provides full galvanic isolation Static readback data registers for simplified program control Program-controlled connect/disconnect of voltage outputs for system testing Accepts pluggable barrier strip cable connector with user screw interface Latching connectors provided Applications Isolated analog subsystems Analog current loops Nuclear facility instrumentation Automatic test equipment (ATE) Supervisory control systems High interference environments Intersystem analog data transmission Ground loop elimination General Description The IC697VAL314 is available with either four or eight isolated, high-quality 12-bit analog output channels on a 6U form factor VMEbus board. Each channel is electrically isolated from all others and from the VMEbus, supporting up to 1,500V isolation. Voltage output ranges are selectable as ±2.5V, ±5V, ±10V, or 0 to +2.5V, +5V, and +10V. The Analog Output Board supports a 10mA load across all voltage ranges. Functional Characteristics Control: Control is handled through the Control and Data Register group, which can be located on any 16-word boundary in either the short I/O (A16) space or the standard (A24) memory space. Board Access: Short I/O (A16) address bits A05-A15 or Standard (A24) address bits A05-A23 are compared with field-configurable jumpers for board selection. Address modifiers are decoded to support supervisory, user access, or both. Compatibility: This product complies with VMEbus Specification ANSI/IEEE STD 1984-1987 IEC 821 and 297.
