The VME-1553-x BCRTM Module is a high-performance, 6U module based on the BCRTM 1553 chip, compliant with MIL-STD-1553 standards. It offers operating temperature options of 0 to +70 degrees Celsius and -40 to +85 degrees Celsius, with the option for conformal coating. The module supports up to four channels of dual-redundant 1553 bus per channel. It includes 128 Kbyte SRAM and operates in BC (Bus Controller), RT (Remote Terminal), and M (Monitor) modes. The module features dual redundant channels (A and B), uses 78 ohm transformers, and supports both long and short stub configurations. It includes internal and external clock options and separate logic for the VME interface, ensuring low power consumption. LED status indicators are provided, and software libraries are available for ‘C’, Windows, Linux, and VxWorks, with PICMG compliance.
