In network emulation mode, the MILbus emulation circuitry emulates a transformer-
coupled network without the use of MILbus couplers (using a resistor network). Thus,
an external dual-redundant MIL-STD-1553 Terminal can be directly connected to the
module.
The Amplitude of the MILbus Signal can be controlled separately for the PRIMARY and
SECONDARY channel. To control the Amplitude an 8Bit Digital to Analogue Converter
is used.
