The AT-PC104PLUS-1553 card provides a flexible, Single function, dual redundant MIL-STD-1553B interface to the PC/104PLUS embedded bus. It provides the highest level of performance & flexibility for MIL-STD-1553B protocol on the PC/104PLUS bus. The AT-PC104PLUS-1553 offers Simulation, Monitoring functions. The card comes integrated with powerful software that reduces application development time. All data bus functionality is supported by our advanced API (Application Programming Interface).

Overview

HARDWARE

The AT-PC104PLUS-1553 card’s single function architecture emulates a Bus Controller or 31 Remote Terminal or Monitor Terminal modes. Standard features include Programmable coupling and bus termination, extensive BC frame structures, error detection, RT Status Bit and Mode Code responses, along with advanced BC functionality. Polling and interrupt generation is also provided. The advanced BC architecture provides a high degree of flexibility and autonomy by providing Major and Minor frame schedule control, streaming data interface, asynchronous message insertion, bulk data transfers, double buffering, message retry, bus switching strategies, and data logging, and fault reporting. The RT architecture provides flexibility in meeting all common MIL-STD-1553 protocols while emulating up to 31 RT addresses on one 1553 channel. The card includes a message monitor mode and a combined Multi-RT/ MT mode where the MT will monitor all 1553 communications on the bus, including the 1553 channel’s assigned RT addresses. The Bus Monitor mode provides complete error detection on 100% fully loaded buses, advanced error detection to isolate faults at a particular word with in a 1553 message.
Transformer and Direct Coupling
The card can be configured to work either in the transformer-coupled mode or in the direct-coupled mode. Jumpers are provided on the card to select the mode. It is configured to work in the transformer-coupled mode by default.
