Actel's New Core1553 Development Kit Gives Access to MIL-STD-1553B Bus Evaluation System Based on Fusion Mixed Signal FPGAs

Continuing to lead the military and aerospace FPGA market, Actel Corporation today announced the new Core1553 Development Kit, providing customers with a self-contained benchtop 1553 bus development system. This new up-to-date development kit provides Actel's military and aerospace customers with an easy to use kit enabling development and testing of MIL-STD-1553B development using Actel's flight-heritage proven Core1553BRM IP core.

Ken O'Neill, Actel's director of high reliability product marketing said that Actel had always placed a heavy emphasis on enabling their military and aerospace customers to complete their designs and move to flight hardware as quickly and efficiently as possible. He further added that as the MIL-STD-1553B standard had moved beyond military avionics into a wide variety of surface, air and space systems, more and more developers found that they required flexible benchtop development and test resources. The new Core1553 Developer's Kit takes advantage of the ease-of-use and reprogrammability of Actel's flash-based Fusion mixed signal FPGAs to make MIL-STD-1553B system designers' lives much easier.

The Core1553 Development Kit consists of a Fusion Advanced Development Kit board and a Core1553 Daughter Card which allows users to exercise the functionality of Actel's Core1553BRM without having to create a complete MIL-STD-1553B-compliant system. Designers using the Core1553BRM source files included in the kit can implement two complete Core1553BRM cores into a single M1AFS1500 FPGA, and evaluate the bus controller, remote terminal and bus monitor (monitor terminal) functions of the 1553B core, all compliant with MIL-STD-1553B and associated international specifications. The design also allows monitoring of 1553B bus activity using Actel Silicon Explorer II hardware or the customer's logic analyzer.

Core1553 Daughter Card Features:

  • MIL-STD-1553B transceiver with dual transformers and concentric twinax connectors, providing MIL-C-49142 compliant connectivity
  • Designers can evaluate and develop medium speed on-board data communications bus solutions for MIL-STD-1553B / UK DEF-STAN 00-18 (Pt.2) / NATO STANAG 3838 AVS / Avionic Standards Coordinating Committee Air-Std 50/2

Pricing and Availability

The Core1553 Development Kit, part number CORE1553-DEV-KIT, is available today for US $3620 at www.actel.com and through Actel's worldwide sales team. The Core1553BRM core is licensed separately and is not included in the kit.

how to send mixed signal to this girl?

okay, so this i'm a girl, and ive been "friends" with my little sisters friends sister. shes a year younger than me and we go to the same school. i told her i thought this guy was cute, so a little later, she calls him over to her locker while im around her. and she flirts with him and tells him to put her stuff in her locker for her. then she looks directly at me and smirks. i tried being nice to this girl, but she always seems to want to make me jealus of her. and she sends me mixed signals. she says we should hang out, and she never accepts any of my invites, then we talk like friends, but at school when i smile and wave she ignores me. shes so superficial too. how do i do the same to her to confuse her and send mixed signals? im getting annoyed with her. only serious answers.
and i dont want to just ignore it. i know i can do that. i want to be a bitch back. as shallow as it sounds. ive been nice and pushed around for too long.

She is a year younger than you. Acting this way makes her feel superior to you. Just ignore her, don't invite her around, etc...
