Multi function boards operate as a Bus Controller, Bus Monitor and Multiple Remote Terminals simultaneously while the single function operates in one mode at a time. In addition, multi function boards have error injection capability and the single function do not.
Application software is compatible across different backplanes.
Our boards have powerful Bus Controllers with extensive instruction sets. One or two redundant 1553 bus interfaces per board. The card requires low power and is highly reliable. No additional hardware is needed because the isolation transformers are inside the card. Some of our competitor's cards require external hardware for this.
