DETAILED ARCHITECTURE
If using DDC cards, additional details for the ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 portions
can be found in the hardware manuals for the cards installed in the AIC. The DDC
card’s manuals can be found on the DDC website at
5.1 USB Interfaces
The AIC include two USB 2.0 ports. The AIC follows the USB standard for 2.0 ports.
This means that they are backwards compatible to USB 1.1/1.0. The AIC will
recognize most generic Keyboards and Mice. Transfer speeds follow the USB
standard.
5.2 Ethernet Interfaces
The AIC includes one Ethernet interface. The Ethernet interface is capable of
operating over 10 BASE-T, 100 BASE-T, or 1000 BASE-T physical layers, with auto-
negotiation capability. The Linux stack running on the AIC’s Atom processor supports
TCP/IP and UDP/IP protocols.
5.3 VGA & Serial Interfaces
The AIC has a VGA connector and Serial port on the rear panel. The VGA connector
follows the video standard. Same with the Serial port. Both interfaces can be used to
view command prompts of the AIC.
5.4 AIC Mainboard
The AIC mainboard is an Arbor Q7 EmQ-i2301-E3845-2G. This supports a QSeven
processor module with two gigabytes of RAM soldered on board.
It utilizes an Intel Atom E3845 Quad core 1.91 GHz. Processor. As noted in previous
sections, it also supports a mSATA drive that is replaceable, as well as two Mini PCI-
e and two PMC slots. The Q7 module itself will be replaceable with future revisions of
the AIC Arbor mainboard.
