MIL 1553


1. Introduction
The MIL 1553 standard was published in 1973 to provide the functional characteristics of a serial bus. It was first used by F-16 Falcon followed by a number of other military aircraft. It is a half duplex system with redundant cables. 

To understand how the system work, we need to understand some of the terms:
- Avionic bus – communication between diff parts of ac
- Source – remote terminal with data to transmit
- Sink – a remote terminal to receive the date
- Dual redundancy  - use of back up system even part of comm. Fail, data will be sent and received.

2. Development on the EARLY aircraft.
-          Analogue
-          One device one display
-          No crss communication.
-          Example, altimeter, speedometer and compass are individual gauge.
Second generation
-          One devices many users.
o   Altimeter – display/ autopilot/ flight recorder.
o   Engine parameters – display/ autopilot/ flight data recorder/maintenance log.
-           
1980 ARINC 429, direct wire connection. As long the number is small, the system work well.

3. About MIL 1553
- Communication between 32 boxes.
- Data 32 16 bits words
- Command control , commander speak one at a time, all tramits begins with command word.
- Messages:
-                           0  BC to all RT
-                           0   Broadcast BC to all RT
-                            0 RT to BC
-                            0    Housekeeping messages (mode codes).

- Message format:
-                            0 Command word from bus controller
-                            0 Data from RT to/from bus controller
-           
-                             0 Status word from RT





          0 The 5 bits address can only support 32 remote terminals.

The T/R bits will determine receiving or transmission mode, 1=transmit and 0 = receive data

Subaddress allow access to RT subaddress.
