6. MODULE CONFIGURATIONS
OmniBus modules are available for many different protocols, including
MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429/575, ARINC 708/453, and ARINC 717/573. Other
standard and custom modules are available. This chapter lists the part numbers
for PCIe/PXIe cards and for MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429/717, and ARINC 708
I/O modules and describes the features and functionality of each.
Note: OmniBus products are not user-configurable. Do not attempt to
swap one module type for another one with a different part number. If a
module is exchanged, it must be with an identical module. OmniBus
products may be upgraded with additional channels or protocols, but
this must be done at the factory.
6.1 OmniBus II PCIe Boards
The OmniBus II PCIe card can host up to two modules, one per core. OmniBus II
PCIe carrier boards are listed in the table below:
Part No. Description
211 Reserved
212 OmniBus II PCIe w/ 2 cores
Table 6.1—OmniBus II PCIe Host Part Numbering
6.2 OmniBus II PXIe Boards
The OmniBus II PXIe card can host up to two modules, one per core. OmniBus
II PXIe carrier boards are listed in the table below:
Part No. Description
221 Reserved
222 OmniBus II PXIe w/ 2 cores

6.3 MIL-STD-1553 Modules
MIL-STD-1553 modules can have one or two dual-redundant databuses (chan-
nels). The part numbers for 1553 modules start with 5 (e.g., 511). The second
digit identifies the level of 1553 channel 0, and the third digit identifies the level
of 1553 channel 1 (a zero indicates no second bus). Table 6.3 illustrates standard
single and dual channel 1553 modules.
