The Eurotech COM-1250 board is a PC/104 form factor module that provides a MIL-STD-1553 bus interface to any standard PC/104 computer system. The MIL-STD-1553 controller can be configured for Remote Terminal (RT) mode, Bus Control (BC) mode, or Monitor Terminal (MT) mode for a variety of 1553 military avionics and ground vehicle applications.

This dual-redundant extended-temperature rated interface is specifically designed to work with transformer-coupled stubs in military network applications, including airplanes, tanks, missiles, satellites and helicopters, as well as space and land-based systems to process data for navigation and altitude, weapon status indications, target tracks and electronic warfare lines. The board’s Ethernet functionality expands its potential application into additional communications environments.

Satisfying all requirements of MIL-STD-1553B Notice II, the 1553/Ethernet card utilizes Aeroflex UTMC's SµMMIT 1553 support chip, which offers automatic message handling, message status, general status polling and interrupt capability. The register-based interface architecture provides many programmable functions as well as extensive device maintenance information.

Operating as a Remote Terminal, the board provides many features for efficient handling of both bulk and periodic data. In Bus Controller mode, the module meets the demands of multi-frame processing with minimal host attention. As a full-featured bus monitor in Monitor Terminal mode, the module provides the capability to monitor message validity and terminal health on all, or selected remote stations on the bus.
