2.4  Applications 

The BU-67121Wx

 

lab module is a valuable tool for design and test teams involved 

with MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429 interfaces, etc.. The Avionics Interface Computer is 
the ideal solution for any application requiring an Ethernet-to-MIL-STD-1553 and/or 
ARINC 429 interface in a lab or production test environment. 

The design of the

 

Avionics Interface Computer

 

leverages the full capabilities of 

DDC’s AceXtreme  MIL-STD-1553 Architecture. Features include a highly 
autonomous BC with expanded instruction set, an RT or Multi-RT providing a wide 
variety of buffering options, a selective message monitor, IRIG-B time code input, 
and a 48-bit, 100 ns resolution Time Tag. Each AceXtreme channel contains up to 1 
MB of RAM. 

2.5  Configuration Options 

  Generic P/N: BU-67121W000R  

-  R = RoHS 

  Mechanical/Environmental Options: 

-  BU-67121W000-JL0 Lab box, RoHS only. 

Note: Contact the Factory for more channel configurations. 
 

2.6  Mechanical Design and Qualification Testing  

The BU-67121Wx board (Figure 2 and Figure 3) is intended for applications 
operating in a lab or other commercial environment.
