The GE Fanuc / VMIC VMIVME-6005 Octal ARINC-429 Intelligent Communications Controller is a fully integrated communications controller providing VMEbus access to eight ARINC-429 high-speed serial interfaces. Each ARINC-429 interface is buffered: up to 255 32-bit words may be queued for transmission and each receiver has multiple 255 character buffers. ARINC-429 SDI/Label sorting may be commanded for eight receive channels with 1,024 character bins per channel. The 68000 I/O processor off-loads from the VMEbus the task of servicing the ARINC transceivers and managing the character buffers. The I/O processor communicates with the VME host through shared buffer memory and flags.
The VMIVME-6005 has an A32/A24 VME slave interface capable of D32, D16, and D8(EO) basic data transfers. The board may be jumper-configured to respond to supervisory, nonprivileged, or both supervisory and nonprivileged VME data transfers. The VMEbus base address of the VMIVME-6005 is configured with DIP switches to occupy a single 64 Kbyte block of memory.
The front panel of the VMIVME-6005 features six shielded DB-9 connectors for interface to the eight ARINC-429 transmit channels and six
