Sital’s Comprehensive Line of MIL-STD-1553 Components
MIL-STD-1553 Components
Sital offers 3 MIL-STD-1553 Integrated Component products:
- Total OCTAVA.
- OCTAVA.
- Minuet.
The ״OCTAVA״ and “Minuet” are engineered to provide versatile BC/RT/Monitor or RT-only operations, equipped with built-in memory for efficient data handling. Emphasizing compatibility and performance, Sital’s components are designed to meet the rigorous demands of the aerospace and defense industries.
The OCTAVA Series: Compatible with DDC’s Mini-ACE
The OCTAVA and Minuet set the standard for MIL-STD-1553 operations. They offer electrical and mechanical compatibility with DDC’s renowned Mini-ACE and Enhanced Mini-ACE models. Integrating Sital’s low-power MIL-STD-1553 transceiver technology, these components ensure smooth integration and operational efficiency.
Both the OCTAVA and Minuet boast comprehensive hardware/software interface compatibility. They encompass register bit definitions, interrupts, memory data structures, and more, ensuring a smooth transition for developers accustomed to DDC 1553’s frameworks.
Total-OCTAVA™: A MIL-STD-1553 Component Solution
Sital’s Total-OCTAVA™ MIL-STD-1553 is based on the OCTAVA design.
The Total-OCTAVA™ devices integrate a full solution on a 312-ball Plastic BGA (Ball Grid Array) package. That package integrates:
- BC/RT/Monitor or RT-only MIL-STD-1553B protocol engine.
- Memory management, processor interface logic (4K or 64K words of RAM).
- Dual 1553 transceiver and dual transformer.
The Total-OCTAVA™ is a pin-to-pin replacement for DDC’s® BU-64863T8 Total-ACE®, providing electrical, mechanical, and architectural compatibility.
For all our components, Sital also offers its API/library/driver software for VxWorks, Linux, and Windows. These drivers provide API-level compatibility with DDC’s AceXtremeME library.
In addition to Mini-ACE and Enhanced Mini-ACE, Sital is able to second source most DDC component solutions, including ACE, Mini-ACE Mark3, Micro-ACE, Micro-ACE TE, and Total-ACE.
Cyber Security with SnS Technology
For all of its integrated 1553 terminals, Sital offers the add-on option for its patented Safe and secure (SnS) technology:
SnS provides the capability to detect and reject received messages from unauthorized transmitting BCs or RTs in real-time and also to detect and locate intermittent or continuous open or short circuit wire faults on 1553 buses, stubs, cables, couplers, terminators, or connected LRUs.
For more information about SnS and “BC Embedded Firewall“ solutions, we invite you to explore the depth of protection and innovation that Sital brings to MIL-STD-1553 components and cyber security solutions.
