Press Release - AIM APE1553-x Test and Simulation Module |
|
UNITRONIX introduces AIM's APE1553-x Test and Simulation Modules for PCI Express |
Unitronix announce AIM's APE1553-x, a member of their new family of PCI Express modules for analysing, simulating, monitoring and testing MIL-STD1553A/B databuses. The APE1553-x concurrently acts as Bus Controller, Multiple Remote Terminals (31) and Chronological/ Mailbox Bus Monitor. Versions with reduced functionality (Single Function or Simulator Only) are available as well as extended temperature range variants. All APE1553-x cards have the capability to handle eight General Purpose Discrete I/O (GPIO) signals and also offer Trigger-I/O. |
 |
A full range of MIL-STD-1553 protocol errors can be injected/ detected. The APE1553-x modules can electrically reconstruct and replay previously recorded MIL-STD-1553A/B record files physically to the MIL-STD1553A/B bus with excellent timing accuracy. The APE1553-x offers an interface for 1, 2 or 4 dual redundant bus streams. All versions are short length PCIe card formats. |
The APE1553-x modules use AIM’s ‘Common Core’ hardware design utilising multiple RISC processors with 128MB of Global RAM and 128MB of ASP RAM. An Application Support Processor (ASP) runs the driver software on the card minimising the host PC interaction. |
| The use of onboard processing and large memory enables autonomous operation with minimal interaction with the host PC for real time applications. An onboard IRIG-B time encoder/ decoder is included with sinusoidal output and ‘free wheeling’ mode for time tag synchronisation on system level using one or more APE1553-x cards. The Physical Bus Interface (PBI) provides programmable bus coupling modes and variable output amplitude to the MIL-STD-1553A/B bus. |
Full function driver software is delivered with the APE1553-x cards in comprehensive Board Software Packages (BSP’s) for different Operating Systems. The optional PBA.pro™ Databus Test & Analysis Tool (for Windows & Linux) can also be purchased for use with APE1553-x modules. |
Off the shelf test scripts are available to support the automatic execution of the ‘AS4112 RT Production Test Plan’ (Protocol and Electrical Tests) and the AS4111 RT Validation Test Plan (Protocol Tests). |
