GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex-Plainview ACT4468D is the next generation monolithic transceiver design which provides full
compliance with MIL-STD-1553/1760 and meets SAE-AS15531 requirements in the smallest packages with the
lowest standby power consumption and one power supply operation.
The dual channel Model ACT4468D perform the front-end analog function of inputting and outputting data through
a transformer to a MIL-STD-1553/1760 data bus.
Design of these transceivers reflects particular attention to active filter performance. This results in low bit and word
error rate with superior waveform purity and minimal zero crossover distortion. Efficient transmitter electrical and
thermal design provides low internal power dissipation and heat rise at high as well as low duty cycles. Each channel
of the dual transceiver is completely separate from the other and fully independent. This includes power leads as well
as signal lines. Hence, each channel may be connected to a different data bus with no interaction.
TRANSMITTER
The transmitter section accepts bi-phase TTL data at the input and when coupled to the data bus with a 1:2.5 ratio
transformer the data bus signal is typically 7.5 Volts P-P at Point A-A' (See Figure 5). When both DATA and DATA
inputs are held low, the transmitter output becomes a high impedance and is '' removed'' from the line. In addition, an
overriding '' INHIBIT" input provides for the removal of the transmitter output from the line. A logic '' 1'' applied to
the '' INHIBIT'' takes priority over the condition of the data inputs and disables the transmitter (See Figure 1
Transmitter Logic Waveform).
The transceiver utilizes an active filter to suppress harmonics above 1MHz. The Transmitter may be safely operated
at 100% duty cycle for an indefinite period into a short circuited 1553 bus.
RECEIVER
The Receiver section accepts bi-phase differential data at the input and produces two TTL signals at the output. The
outputs are DATA and DATA, and represent positive and negative excursions of the input beyond a pre-determined
threshold (See Receiver Logic Waveform. Figure 2).
The pre-set internal thresholds will detect data bus signals exceeding 1.150 Volts P-P and reject signals less than 0.6
volts P-P when used with a 1:2.5 turns ratio transformer (See Figure 5 for transformer data and typical connection).
