VN0601 - Interface for ARINC 429

The VN0601 is a compact and powerful interface for ARINC 429 bus systems. The interface conveniently utilizes a PC connection via USB 2.0, it does not require an external power supply, and it has analog/digital interfaces for acquiring other measurement parameters. The VN0601 gives developers of networked electronic units in aircrafts (Line Replaceable Units or LRUs) a high-performance interface solution for testing and bus analysis.
Advantages
- 4 ARINC 429 TX and 4 ARINC 429 RX channels
- Supports High-Speed and Low-Speed communication
- Host interface via USB 2.0
- Does not require any external power supply
- Precise time stamps
- Synchronization with multiple devices and other bus systems (e.g. CAN, Ethernet, AFDX®)
- Optimal performance with the CANoe.A429 tool for monitoring, debugging and testing avionic systems
- Open interface for third-party tools with the XL Driver Library
- High flexibility based on reloadable FPGA hardware architecture
- Very rugged housing
- Analog/digital IO
- Electrical isolation of all connections
Functions
- Variable channel-specific settings
- Bit rates:
> RX: 10 - 120 kBit/s (mode for automatic bit rate detection available)
> TX: 10.5 - 16 kBit/s (Low-Speed), 90 - 110 kBit/s (High-Speed) - Parity check and parity generation in hardware (odd, even, none)
- Minimum interval (gap) between ARINC words
- Bit rates:
- Message-specific settings for parity and gap
- Detailed error signaling (e.g. bit rate, duty cycle, parity, TX gap)
- Evaluation of TX errors by feedback channel
- Separate hardware scheduler for each TX channel for periodic transmission of ARINC words
- Statistical function for bus analysis
- Quick analysis and generation, even in complex communication scenarios with CANoe.A429
