The Core1553 Development Kit allows users to evaluate the functionality of Microsemi's Core1553BRM without having to create a complete MIL-STD-1553B-compliant system. The source files included with the Core1553 Development Kit provide the user with the programming files necessary to program a Fusion Advanced development kit to create a 1553 bus controller, remote terminal, and bus monitor compliant with MIL-STD-1553B. The targeted FPGA (M1AFS1500) is mounted on the Fusion Advanced development kit board and 1553 Bus physical connections are included on the Core1553 daughter card, which plugs directly onto the Fusion Advanced development kit board. Once programmed, the development board provides the customer with a self-contained 1553 bus evaluation system.

Quantity	Description
1	Fusion Advanced Development Kit with power supplies
1	Core1553 Daughter Card
1	Quickstart Card

Note: Purchasing the kit gives the owner the right to the programming file of the demo, but not an evaluation of the IP. The IP evaluation or purchase should be quoted separately.

Core1553BRM Demonstration

The Core1553BRM demonstration design implements two complete Core1553BRM cores into a single M1AFS1500 FPGA and allows the user to evaluate 1553 bus controller, remote terminal, and bus monitor (monitor terminal) functions of the core. In addition, the design allows for the monitoring of 1553B bus activity using Microsemi Silicon Explorer II hardware or logic analyzer.

To purchase a kit or inquire about additional information, please contact your local Microsemi Sales representative.
