HI-8581
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (con't)
3. Each data bit must follow its predecessor by not less than
8 samples and no more than 12 samples. In this manner the
bit rate is checked. With exactly 1MHz input clock frequency,
the acceptable data bit rates are as follows:

The ARINC 429 specification contains the following timing
specification for the received data:

RECEIVER PARITY
The receiver parity circuit counts Ones received, including the
parity bit, ARINC bit 32. If the result is odd, then "0" will appear in
the 32nd bit.
Again the HI-8581 accepts signals that meet these specifications
and rejects outside the tolerances. The way the logic operation
achieves this is described below:
RETRIEVING DATA
1. Key to the performance of the timing checking logic is an ac-
curate 1MHz clock source. Less than 0.1% error is recom-
mended.
Once 32 valid bits are recognized, the receiver logic generates an
End of Sequence (EOS). If the receiver decoder is enabled and
the 9th and 10th ARINC bits match the control word program bits
or if the receiver decoder is disabled, then EOS clocks the data
ready flag flip flop to a "1", D/R1 or D/R2 (or both) will go low. The
data flag for a receiver will remain low until after both ARINC bytes
from that receiver are retrieved. This is accomplished by first
activating EN with SEL, the byte selector, low to retrieve the first
byte and then activating EN with SEL high to retrieve the second
byte. ENI retrieves data from receiver 1 and EN2 retrieves data
from receiver 2.
2. The sampling shift registers are 10 bits long and must show
three consecutive Ones, Zeros or Nulls to be considered valid
data. Additionally, for data bits, the One or Zero in the upper bits
of the sampling shift registers must be followed by a Null in the
lower bits within the data bit time. For a Null in the word gap,
three consecutive Nulls must be found in both the upper and
lower bits of the sampling shift register. In this manner the mini-
mum pulse width is guaranteed.
If another ARINC word is received, and a new EOS occurs before
the two bytes are retrieved, the data is overwritten by the new
word.
