The IPM-561 provides a high-channel-density solution to your ARINC 561/568 Avionics Databus requirements. Available as a 32 MHz single-size Industry Pack (IPack) module. The IPM-561 offers message scheduling and time-tagging with a precision of one microsecond.
On-board transmit/receive buffers have programmable almost-full/almost-empty thresholds, which fully support both polling and interrupt-driven software strategies to ensure optimal real-time performance.
The IPM-561 transmitters are short-circuit protected and offer programmable bit-rate and optional parity generation.
Receivers can be programmed to filter incoming messages based on their ARINC 561/568 labels. In addition, receivers can be configured for internal loopback or external loopback verification.
Carrier Board Support
The functionality of the IPM-561 is further enhanced by the power of MAX Technologies’ line of intelligent multi- platform (PCI, CPCI and PXI) carrier boards. All modules and carrier boards are synchronized and time correlated to 32-bit microsecond-resolution.
Software Support
The MX-Foundation library provides high-level abstraction of hardware and allows to easily control mixed protocols and I/O modules on one or multiple carrier boards.
