DESCRIPTION
DDC's BU-65170, BU-61580 and BU-61585 Bus Controller / Remote Terminal / Monitor Terminal (BC/RT/MT) A d v a n c e d Communication Engine (ACE) terminals comprise a complete integrated interface between a host processor and a MIL-STD-1553 A and B or STANAG 3838 bus. The ACE series is packaged in a 1.9 square-inch, 70-pin, low-profile, cofired MultiChip Module (MCM) ceramic package that is well suited for applications with stringent height requirements. The 8K x 17 RAM feature provides capability for memory integrity checking by implementing RAM parity generation and verification on all accesses. To minimize board space and “glue” logic, the ACE provides ultimate flexibility in interfacing to a host processor and internal/external RAM. The advanced functional architecture of the ACE terminals provides software compatibility to DDC's Advanced Integrated Multiplexer (AIM) series hybrids, while incorporating a multiplicity of architectural enhancements. It allows flexible operation while off-loading the host processor, ensuring data sample consistency, and supports bulk data transfers.
