Eletter Product
Advanced US-Manufactured MIL-STD-1553 Solutions with Built-in Cybersecurity
Micross, a leading global provider of mission-critical microelectronic components and services for high-reliability aerospace, defense, and space applications, and Sital Technology (sitaltech.com), a leader in MIL-STD-1553 IP cores, specializing in integrated FPGA solutions, have partnered to provide the latest and most advanced MIL-STD-1553 technology, manufactured in the United States at the Micross Center of Excellence in Apopka, Florida, supported by the most expansive US-based ecosystem of end-to-end high-reliability semiconductor and microelectronics IC packaging, integration, testing, and qualification services. Micross is the exclusive world-wide manufacturer, distributor, and value-services provider of Sital’s best-in-class 1553 products, including Octava, Total Octava, and integrated transceiver solutions.
Micross’ global manufacturing and product support capabilities offer streamlined supply chain options for 1553 customers worldwide. These MIL-STD-1553 components provide electrical, mechanical and software compatibility with industry standard, fully integrated components, and feature bus controllers with built-in cybersecurity intrusion detection/protection (IDS/IPS), wire fault detection, FPGA based flexibility, and very low power transceivers with real-time elimination of residual transmitter voltage.
Sital Technology, founded in 1997, is a leading global supplier of communication data bus solutions for avionics, aerospace, and automotive applications. Sital supplies communication interface solutions for MIL-STD-1553, ARINC-429, CAN bus/CAN-FD/ARINC-825-4, EBR-1553, and the 16PP194 and H009 legacy buses. For these interfaces, Sital supplies components, embedded boards, testers, IP cores, transformers, API/library/driver software and GUI software. Sital’s MIL-STD-1553 interfaces provide compatibility with standard industry solutions, while including some distinguishing feature advantages:
- Very low-power transceivers with built-in compensation to eliminate residual voltages; aka dynamic offset or “tails”
- For its bus controller, built-in cybersecurity IDS/IPS (intrusion detection/protection) capability
- Option for high-speed synchronous host interface
- IRIG-106 Chapter 10 file format for Monitor mode
- For space applications, versions of MIL-STD-1553 and EBR-1553 IP cores with built-in reset logic to mitigate against single event upsets.
- Capability for wire fault protection for detecting and locating open and short circuit faults in data buses.
