Abstract :
The author highlights the electrical, mechanical, and special competitive features of the 1553-ACE series. The 1553-ACE series programmable terminal is the smallest fully integrated MIL-STD-1553A/B Notice 2, STANAG 3838, and MIL-STD-1760A dual redundant remote terminal (RT), bus controller (BC), and bus monitor (MT). The ACE series has an advanced set of registers, internal 4 K words of shared RAM, dual encoder/decoders, and three-state buffers for address and data I/Os in one monolithic chip. It has selective I/O features, such as buffered DMA or a shared RAM interface, with or without zero wait states to support a variety of microprocessors. Additional programmable features incorporated are RT circular data stacks programmed by individual subaddress, internal RAM command illegalization, and advanced BC/MT options for bus snooping or selective monitoring
