MIL-STD-1553 VALIDATION & CERTIFICATION

THE WORLD of AVIONICS IN YOUR HAND
BMC COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

MIL-STD-1553 was originally used in military aerospace platforms. The standard has now expanded beyond its traditional domain to encompass applications of for combat vehicles, ships, satellites, missiles, the International Space Station Program, and advanced commercial avionic applications.

Databus and data network technology continues to play an ever-increasing role in aviation digital electronics architectures. The evolution of integrated modular aviation digital electronics architectures with multiple subsystem integration into single and redundant data networks is increasing the influence of the data network at the airframe level. The criticality of data networks has long been recognized in the avionics industry. This previously has led avionics manufacturers and aircraft original equipment manufacturers to design specific aerospace solutions to meet these requirements.

The software for FPGA development creates different routing on every compilation.
This means that after every compilation the result must be tested and pass a validation process.
Also , the validation for MIL-STD-1553 is a must due to the different revisions to the standard.
All BMC products are extensively tested before being included in our production line.
The same process for custom IPs.

The information in the page shows a validatation test results for our SBC-UADI board.
