Alta Data Technologies’ PCIE4L-1553 interface module is a multi-channel (1-4), ½ size, 4 Lane PCI Express 1553 card supported by the latest software technologies. The PCI Express card is based on the industry’s most advanced 32-bit 1553 FPGA protocol engine, AltaCore™, and by a feature-rich application programming interface, AltaAPI™, which is a multi-layer ANSI C and Windows .NET (MSVS 2005/08/10 C++, C#, VB .NET) architecture. This hardware and software package provides increased system performance and reduces integration time.
AltaCore-1553 is guaranteed 1553B Notice II & IV compliant and all cards are manufactured to the highest IPC-Level 3 standards and ISO 9001:2008 processes. Cards are available in dual-function (BC/Mon or multi-RT/Monitor) or full-function (BC, mRT and Mon) configurations. Playback and Signal Generation are part of BC operations. Alta is committed to a risk free integration and will be glad to help with any level of your system development.
Optional Cable Assemblies to 1553 Jack Connectors and AUX I/O Can Be Provided – Please See Part Numbers.
Signal Capture circuitry is included on the first channel for cable troubleshooting and cybersecurity modeling. The example captures below are shown with our AltaView analyzer, or integrate captures in your application with AltaAPI SDK (included):
