EBR-1553 Tester - Sital Technology - Databus Communication Solutions -

EBR-1553 is a 10Mbps bit rate protocol which utilized the robust Mil-Std-1553 protocol over RS-485 transceivers in a hub-based point-to-point connection. Using the network topology of a star between Remote and BC Terminals allows robust and high-speed data transfer.
EBR supports various modes of operation – “SPEC” mode, “SWITCH” mode and “LINK” mode.

SPEC mode is similar to the standard 1553 protocol, where the BC sends the message in all ports, all RTs receive the message, and only the RT with the appropriate RT address should respond.

In SWITCH mode the BC sends the message only on the port where the particular RT is connected. For example, if a message is intended for RT 6, then it will be transmitted only on port 6, and the message will contain the RT address 6.

In LINK mode, the message is transmitted only on the appropriate port which corresponds to the required RT address (for example – port 6), but the RT actual address on the message command is ‘0’ for all RTs. This means that any RT that receives a message in this mode, with the RT address ‘0’ should answer to the message. Therefore, RTs are physically connected to the corresponding ports on the BC.

In MultiComBox Sital supports all three modes of operation.

Sital Technology announced today that it completed the design of the Enhanced Bit Rate (EBR) 1553 Intellectual Property core for FPGA.

EBR-1553 is a 10Mbps bit rate protocol that utilized the robust Mil-Std-1553 protocol over RS-485 transceivers in a hub-based point-to-point connection. Using a star network topology between BC & Remote Terminals enables robust and high-speed data transfer.

Sital’s EBR-1553 IP core’s based on Sital’s proven BRM1553D 1553 IP cores, with DDC® Enhanced Mini-Ace® compatible interface. The ones available are Remote Terminals, Bus Controller as well as Bus Monitor IP Core configurations. The BRM1553D core can work with any FPGA, and requires only a standard RS-485 transceiver, which supports 10Mbps.

Users of Sital’s EBR-1553 IP core can select the core configuration (BC, RT, MT), clock frequency, memory configuration and FPGA family. The back-end interface can be targeted to a local-bus, PCI bus or simple FIFO/registers read/write bus.

The IP Core is provided with software drivers for Windows, Linux, and QNX along with high-level API. The API is fully compatible with DDC API, so that software developers already used to the DDC interface can easily transfer their existing applications to EBR.

An EBR-1553 tester is also available, utilizing the exact same hardware as the commonly used MultiComBox™, only with updated firmware.

“We are very pleased that we can now deliver high-speed EBR-1553 IP to our customers” said Duli Yariv, Sital’s VP Sales and Marketing. “Customers will enjoy the robustness of the 1553 protocol at a high speed of 10Mbps over the very low-cost RS-485 transceivers, with the ability to easily integrate the core into their FPGA and application” he added.

Ofer Hofman, Sital’s CTO pointed that “unlike other vendors’ solutions, Sital’s is a complete solution that includes all modes of operation – BC, RT and Monitor – along with software drivers and EBR tester hardware”.

The EBR-1553 IP core joins the Sital’s growing family of Mil-Std-1553, Arinc429, CAN, WB-194 and other reliable serial bus communication IP cores and solutions.
