National Instruments 784805-01

The National Instruments 784805-01 PXI Avionics Multiprotocol Interface Module, identified by model LV-222-511-442, is specifically engineered to facilitate communication between PXI systems and key aerospace protocols, namely MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429. This module serves as an essential bridge for reliable data transfer among the various systems employed in both military and commercial aircraft. The 784805-01 comprises two core I/O sites, each equipped with 64 MB of memory, optimizing single-function capabilities for robust interaction with diverse avionics systems. It can be utilized as either a bus controller or a monitor for MIL-STD-1553, accommodating up to 32 remote terminals and supporting all defined message types while also maintaining a time-stamped history of bus activity for analytical access. Additionally, the module features 16 channels for ARINC 429, with integrated processors managing protocol tasks such as receive buffering and transmit scheduling, and allowing for programmable bit rate frequencies on each channel. Constructed in a standard 3U PXIe form factor (100 mm x 160 mm) and weighing 3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg), the 784805-01 operates effectively within an environmental temperature range of -40 to 85°C and can withstand storage temperatures from -55 to 100°C. Designed to operate in non-condensing humidity conditions ranging from 0 to 95%, this module is backed by a three-year warranty, ensuring its reliability in demanding aerospace applications.
