An IBM PC Based ARINC Interface

Abstract

A general purpose ARINC (Aeronautical Radio, INC) serial interface has been developed for use with an IBM PC or compatible computer. The interface consist of a PC card and software to selectivity read, log, time tag and process data read from the ARINC bus. The PC card uses an XT slot and the data is written onto a floppy disk or hard disk. The data logging and post-processing software has been configured for ARINC 419/561 but can be readily reconfigured to other ARINC formats. ARINC 419/561 are low speed standards dealing with systems operating at 11 + or - 3.5 kilobits per second. The interface and PC software could readily be adapted to handle much higher speed ARINC and non- ARINC formats.
