1553 remote terminal ASIC
The MIL-STD-1553B RT ASIC is a cost effective MIL-STD-1553B Remote Terminal ASIC sub- system developed in a radiation tolerant technology qualified for space applications.
The MIL-STD-1553B RT ASIC is able to manage the MIL-STD-1553B dialogue in remote terminal mode only and has a dual bus capability. This product shall be used in addition with the MIL-STD-1553B Dual Transceiver or two MIL-STD-1553B Single Transceivers in order to manage dual redundant MIL-STD- 1553B applications.
Features / technical details
The MIL-STD-1553B RT ASIC is able to manage the MIL-STD-1553B dialogue in remote terminal mode only and has a dual bus capability.
This product shall be used in addition with the MIL-STD-1553B Dual Transceiver or two MIL-STD-1553B Single Transceivers in order to manage dual redundant MIL-STD- 1553B applications. It can be connected one hand to a dual redundant MIL-STD-1553B bus with an external isolation transformer for each bus and, on the other hand, to the user thanks to an interface composed of a 16 bits data bus, a 12 bits address bus and a control bus. Sub-system easy integration is achieved thanks to the opened user interface and optimised architecture. It is possible to connect the MIL-STD-1553B RT ASIC to register, CAN or memory components without additional processing unit.
Dedicated services are also provided in order to download the user application from protocol management tasks: words validity is automatically checked and only valid messages are transmitted to the application.
The MIL-STD-1553B RT ASIC low power consumption and radiation tolerance, better than 100 kRads (functional), is especially relevant for space applications
