A429 - cPCI ARINC Interface Features: 8 - Highly Configurable Chan- nels with Concurrent and Independent Operation. Each Channel Selectable for: Transmit or Receive High or Low Speed Receive and/or Bus Monitoring • Transmitter The A429-cPCI interface provides the user with 8 highly programmable ARINC Advanced Bus Scheduling channels over the compactPCI backplane. Each channel is software configurable for Transmission list Synchronization transmit or receive, high or low speed (12.5k or 100k bits per second) and ARINC 429 or Word Level Error Injection 575 protocol requirements. Source lists may be transmitted by any channel. Sink data may be filtered and received in a current value table, local monitor and/or global monitor buffers. The ARINC data word may be identified and sorted by either Label or Label/ • Receiver SDI. The onboard DSP controls the flexible data structures, triggers, interrupts, time Label/SDI Current Value Table stamping and data communications on the 429 bus. External triggers may be used for 48 bit 1μSec Time Stamp synchronization while the advanced interrupt technology allows realtime event handling Error Detection by the host processor. As each 32 bit ARINC 429 data word is received, it is time stamped with a 48 bit, 1μsec time • Bus Monitor tag. When the receive channel is placed in the monitor mode, the time stamped data is Filterable Sequential Buffer accompanied with a 16 bit status word which provides error information regarding each Link List Buffer Chains received word. When a channel setup as a transmitter, any number of label sequences may 48 bit 1μSec Time Stamp be sent on each channel and all transmit channels may be synchronized for simultaneous Error Detection transmission. Each ARINC word to be transmitted has an accompanying control word used to implement various error injection capability. Words may be transmitted in sched- External Trigger Initiation uled and/or asynchronous priority methods. • Architecture Host Off-loading DSP Hardware Overview Large, Flexible Memory SBS A429 interfaces are based upon high speed DSP, programmable logic and dual port Label & SDI Operations RAM. This advanced design delivers a highly reliable hardware platform that is feature System Event Interrupts rich and user friendly. The 256k of dual port RAM allows the host system to access setup, receive, monitor, transmit and change data structures, at any time. Definable • Software Support transmission and receive structures, including link list and buffer length sizes, allows No Cost Drivers & Libraries the user to design the data structure optimal for the specific application while maintain- Including Source Code ing an easy to use environment.
