HI-8282A
BD12 control word bit is set low, the 32nd bit transmitted will
make parity odd. If the control bit is high, the parity is even.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (cont.)
TRANSMITTER
SELF TEST
A block diagram of the transmitter section is shown in Figure 3.
FIFO OPERATION
If the BD05 control word bit is set low, 429DO or 429DO are
internally connected to the receivers inputs, bypassing the
interface circuitry. Data to Receiver 1 is as transmitted and data to
Recevier 2 is the complement. 429DO and 429DO outputs remain
active during self test.
The FIFO is loaded sequentially by first pulsing PL1 to load byte 1
and then PL2 to load byte 2. The control logic automatically loads
the 31 bit word in the next available position of the FIFO. If TX/R,
the transmitter ready flag, is high (FIFO empty), then 8 words,
each 31 bits long, may be loaded. If TX/R is low, then only the
available positions may be loaded. If all 8 positions are full, the
FIFO ignores further attempts to load data.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The two receivers are independent of the transmitter. Therefore,
control of data exchanges is strictly at the option of the user. The
only restrictions are:
DATA TRANSMISSION
1. The received data may be overwritten if not retrieved
within one ARINC word cycle.
When ENTX goes high, enabling transmission, the FIFO
positions are incremented with the top register loading into the
data transmission shift register. Within 2.5 data clocks the first
data bit appears at either 429DO or 429DO. The 31 bits in the
data transmission shift register are presented sequentially to the
outputs in the ARINC 429 format with the following timing:
2. The FIFO can store 8 words maximum and ignores
attempts to load addition data if full.
3. Byte 1 of the transmitter data must be loaded first.
4. Either byte of the received data may be retrieved first.
Both bytes must be retrieved to clear the data ready flag.

5. After ENTX, transmission enable, goes high it cannot go
low until TX/R, transmitter ready flag, goes high. Otherwise,
one ARINC word is lost during transmission.
WORD GAPTIME
The word counter detects when all loaded positions are trans-
mitted and sets the transmitter ready flag, TX/R, high.
MASTER RESET (MR)
On a Master Reset data transmission and reception are
immediately terminated, the transmit FIFO and receivers
cleared as are the transmit and receive flags. The Control
Register is not affected by a Master Reset.
