MIL-STD-1553 is a versatile standardized bus interface. MIL-STD-1553 is robust featuring Manchester encoding and enough voltage swing to provide excellent noise immunity and reasonable throughput rates. MIL-STD-1553 is the interface of choice for critical applications; for example aircraft instrumentation and control. There are many devices supporting the 1553 bus - navigation devices, instrumentation, sensors and more. IP-1553 makes it easy to gain access to the MIL-STD-1553 bus. Just connect; program a few registers and then use like an IO device. IP-1553 is currently supported with the Dynamic Engineering Carrier software drivers for Windows® and Linux. Use an existing IP slot within your chassis or combine with a carrier to make PCIe-1553, PCI-1553, PC104p-1553, VME-1553, VPX-1553, or cPCI-1553.

Connect your hardware to your favorite Avionics with IP-1553. IP-1553 is an IndustryPack® compatible MIL-STD-1553 interface featuring dual redundant BC, RT and Monitor capabilities in one position. The DDC Micro-ACE provides the industry compatible 1553 interface with 64K of RAM and programmable master, target and monitor operation. Support for both Direct coupled [short stub] and Transformer coupled [long stub] operation is provided. IP-1553 comes in industrial temperature [-40C to +85C] standard.

IP-1553 is standard single wide IP which is 8 and 32 MHz. IP Bus compatible. The IP interface supports the Holt 1553 interface through the IO, INT and Memory spaces.

History: IP-1553 was designed in 2006. The design was based on the original Micro-ACE interface. In 2019 a major overhaul of the design was performed switching to the Holt part with transformers incorporated, updated surrounding logic to be industrial temperature. The new design is SW compatible with the original. The design has well developed Linux and Windows® 10/11 support package available.

The IP Module driver can be instantiated multiple times to control multiple cards by the same CPU. IP-1553 when coupled with the Dynamic Driver "knows" what slot it is in and which carrier it is installed into. The slot and carrier information is required when using multiple cards in a PCI/PCIe system with dynamic address assignment. A known system configuration can be combined with the slot and carrier information to deterministically access the right card

  • PCIe implementations can be done with the PCIe3IP and PCIe5IP. Applications from 1-10 Dual Redundant nodes per PCIe slot.
  • PCI implementations can be done with the PCI3IP and PCI5IP. Applications from 1-10 Dual Redundant nodes per PCI slot.
  • cPCI 3U is supported with the cPCI2IP. Applications from 1Dual Redundant connection to 4 dual redundant connections per 3U cPCI slot.
  • cPCI 6U is supported with the cPCI4IP. Applications from 1 Dual Redundant connection to 8 dual redundant connections per 6U cPCI slot.
  • PC104p is supported with the PC104pIP. Applications from 1 Dual Redundant connection to 2 dual redundant connections per PC104 stack position.
  • PC104p situations with a custom mechanical can be done with the PC104p4IP Applications from 1 Dual Redundant connection to 8 dual redundant connections per PC104 stack position.

    IP-1553 Benefits

    Speed
    The IP interface supports 32 MHz operation for quick data loading and unloading. The interface supports interrupts and polling. The MIL-STD-1553 interface supports the standard rates and can be reprogrammed to alternate user requirements. Dynamic Engineering carriers support 32 to 16 conversion in HW allowing for 32 bit accesses on the host bus. Our new PCIe carriers support x8, x16, x32, and x64 accesses to the IP. Fill or read the circular buffers with quad accesses for higher performance.
    Price
    System level cost is best when reasonably priced reliable hardware is used and NRE minimized. With IP-1553, driver support for the carrier and IP level, reference software, history of reliable operation, and fantastic client support your cost per unit and overall costs are attractive.
    Ease of Use
    IP-1553 is easy to use. All registers are read-write and word aligned. There is a lot of flexability with interrupt and polled mode operations. Please download the manuals and see for yourself. Reference software is provided in source form to get you started. The reference software does multiple tests including loop-back.
    Availability
    There are two basic models with one or two ports. Both are stocked in small quantities. Special versions and larger orders may have a delay based on part availability. An advantage of working with Dynamic Engineering is the availability of our own manufacturing capability. Production of larger orders will be faster than you might expect.
    IP Specification Compatibility
    IP-1553 is compliant per the VITA 4 - 1995 specification. Tested with PCI and PCIe based carriers. All Dynamic Engineering IP Modules are compatible with the PCIe3IP, PCIe5IP, VPX2IP, PCI3IP, PCI5IP, cPCI2IP, cPCI4IP, PC104pIP etc. IP-1553 will operate with any IP specification compliant carrier board.

    IP-1553Drivers

    Software Support for IP-1553-X includes: Windows® 10 and Linux
    The IP driver is layered and operates on top of the Carrier driver. IP drivers are auto installed for each instance detected. Please see the Driver manuals for the specifics of each type.

    Drivers and Reference SW are developed for each type / version of IP-1553 implemented. Windows® and Linux SW shown is included with your purchase of the HW. A small one-time charge is required for the VxWorks versions. Unsupported SW versions may have an NRE requirement.

    Integration support is available. Please contact Dynamic Engineering for this option or download the Technical Support Description from the Company button.
