DDC debuts PCI-Express to MIL-STD-1553 BGA package to save space, power
BOHEMIA, N.Y., 30 July 2013.Data Device Corp. (DDC) is introducing the PCIe-Express AceXtreme BU-67302B0C0L-202 component, providing dual MIL-STD-1553 transceivers, protocol, and 64K x 36 of internal memory within a single BGA device with a PCI-Express host interface.
“The PCI-Express AceXtreme saves board space and power, while simplifying MIL-STD-1553 board design and layout by utilizing a commonly available, high-performance, serial back end interface to the host processor,” says Sean Sleicher, DDC’s data bus marketing manager.
The device provides a dual redundant MIL-STD-1553 channel with very low power, less than 1.1W power dissipation at 50 percent duty cycle. It includes an IEEE 1149.1-compliant JTAG test interface to support boundary scan testing of circuit assemblies, a digital IRIG-B input, and eight digital discrete I/O lines. It is well suited for industrial temperature range applications (-40°C to +85°C) where PCB space is at a premium, due to its compact size of just 15 mm x 20 mm, and its low power dissipation.
Benefits include:
- Ultra Small Size and Efficiency Saves Space and Power
- Replaces 2 Transceivers, MIL-STD-1553 Protocol Core, and Memory
- Single Package with PCIe Board Design
- RT Validated to Simplify SAE-AS4112 Qualification
- RoHS Version Available
