22、ADDCS)designed for installation in commercial transportaircraft.The intent of this document is to provide general andspecific design guidance for the development andinstallation of an ADDCS primarily for airline use. Itwill describe the desired operational capability of thesystem and the standards n
23、ecessary to ensure the levelof interchangeability specified in Section 1.4.Equipment manufacturers should note that thisdocument encourages them to produce maintenance-free, high performance equipment. They are at libertyto accomplish this objective by means of designtechniques they consider to be t
24、he most appropriate, astheir airline customers are interested primarily in theend result rather than the means employed to achieveit.1.2 Summary of Operational CharacteristicsThe Analog and Discrete Data Converter Systemdescribed herein is intended to process, convert andmultiplex analog and discret
25、e signals in order toprovide them in the digital format described in ARINCSpecification 429, “Mark 33 Digital InformationTransfer System (DITS)”.The 429 output bus is expected to feed thoseequipments that use the corresponding data in order toavoid any analog to digital conversion in theseequipments
26、.1.3 Brief Description of the SystemThe Analog and Discrete Data Converter System mayconsist of one or two units (ADDCUs) designed toprocess engine data, fuel data, and aircraftconfiguration data (EADAC: Engine/Airframe DataAnalog Converter) and one or two additional unitsdesigned to process system
27、configuration data for thoseaircraft that need this function (SDAC: System DataAnalog Converter). Note that all the units are identicalin hardware terms. They are programmed differently,however, in order to fulfill EADAC and SDACfunctional needs. Attachment 1 to this documentshows typical EADAC/SDAC
28、 arrangements. Otherarrangements can be used for either function accordingto particular reliability needs.COMMENTARYThe trend among engine manufacturers toprovide engine data in digital form is expectedto reduce the level of need for analog-to-digital conversion of such data.1.4 Interchangeability1.
29、4.1 GeneralOne of the primary functions of an ARINC equipmentcharacteristic is to designate, in addition to certainperformance parameters, the interchangeability desiredfor aircraft equipment produced by variousmanufacturers. Manufacturers are referred to Section2.0 of ARINC Report 403 for the airli
30、ne industrysdefinition of Terms and General Requirements forinterchangeability. As explained in that Report, thedegree of interchangeability considered necessary andattainable for each particular equipment is specified inthe pertinent ARINC Equipment Characteristic.1.4.2 Interchangeability Desired f
31、or the ARINC 729ADDCSLimited unit interchangeability is desired for theADDCS units regardless of the manufacturing sourceof the individual items. Such interchangeability maybe achieved, in a design based on digital computers, byalteration or replacement of the program memory.If two EADACs are used o
32、n an aircraft, both shouldemploy the same program and be interchangeable. Itshould be possible to program the EADAC for use onany type of commercial aircraft regardless of thenumber of engines.If two SDACs are used on an aircraft, both shouldemploy the same program and be interchangeable. Itshould b
33、e possible to program the SDAC for use onany type of commercial aircraft.COMMENTARYThe airlines recognize that their desire for fullunit interchangeability of the EADAC andSDAC must be tempered by the fact thatsoftware differences will be needed toaccommodate the different characteristics ofthe airc
34、raft types in which they will beinstalled.1.4.3 “Generation Interchangeability” ConsiderationsThe airlines desire future evolutionary equipmentimprovements and the inclusion of any additionalfunctions in new equipments during the next few yearsto be achieved without violating the interwiring andform
35、 factor standards set forth in this document.Provisions to ensure forward-looking “generationinterchangeability” (as best can be predicted) areincluded in this document to guide manufacturers intheir future developments.1.5 Integrity and AvailabilitySince it is anticipated that this equipment may be
36、 usedto feed other aircraft systems each of which will haveits own reliability considerations, attention should bepaid to the need for integrity availability of eachADDCS unit so that the reliability of the ADDCSremains consistent with the needs of different users.1.6 Regulatory ApprovalThe equipmen
37、t should meet all applicable regulatoryrequirements. This Characteristic does not and cannotset forth the specific requirements that equipment mustmeet to be assured of approval. Such information mustbe obtained from the appropriate regulatory authority.ARINC CHARACTERISTIC 729 - Page 22.0 INTERCHAN
38、GEABILITY STANDARDS2.1 IntroductionThis section of this Characteristic sets forth the specificform factors, mounting provisions, interwiring, input andoutput interfaces and power supply characteristics desiredfor the complete Analog and Discrete Data ConverterSystem. These standards are necessary to
39、 ensure thecontinued independent design and development of boththe equipment and the airframe installation.Manufacturers should note that although thisCharacteristic does not preclude the use of different formfactors and interwiring features, the practical problem ofredesigning what will then be a s
40、tandard aircraftinstallation to accommodate some special system couldvery well make the use of that other design prohibitivelyexpensive for the customer. They should recognize,therefore, the practical advantages of developingequipment in accordance with the form factor, interwiringand signal standar
41、ds of this document.2.2 Form Factors, Connectors and Index Pin Coding2.2.1 Analog Data Converter (ADDCU)The Analog and Discrete Data Converter Unit shouldcomply with the dimensional standards in ARINCSpecification 600 “Air Transport Avionics EquipmentInterfaces (NIC Phase 1)”, for the 6 MCU form fac
42、tor. TheADDCU should also comply with ARINC 600 standardsin respect of weight, racking attachments, front and rearprojections and cooling.The ADDCU should be provided with a low insertionforce, size 3 shell ARINC 600 service connector. Thisconnector should be located on the center grid of the unitre
43、ar panel, and index pin code 04 should be used. The topand center inserts of this connector (LTP, RTP, LMP andRMP) should each provide 150 contacts. The left lowerinsert (LBP) should provide 11 single contacts and spacesfor 2 small diameter coaxial contacts. The right lowerinsert (RBP) is not used.
44、Attachment 1-2 to this documentshows the connector arrangement and Attachment 2 thepin assignments.If functions not assigned pins on the service connector inAttachment 2 of this document are needed to be brought tothe “outside world” to facilitate testing the ADDCU withautomatic test equipment (ATE)
45、, they should be assignedpins on an auxiliary connector whose type and location isselected by the equipment manufacturer. The manufacturershould observe the standards of ARINC 600 whenchoosing the location for this connector and note that,other than to accommodate the needs for equipmentidentificati
46、on by the ATE described in Section 5.2 of thisdocument, he is free to make whatever pin assignments onit he wishes. The airlines do not want the unassigned(“future spare”) pins of the service connector used forfunctions associated solely with ATE use.2.3 InterwiringThe standard interwiring for the A
47、DDCS is set forth inAttachment 2. Equipment manufacturers are cautionednot to rely on special wires, cabling or shielding for theirparticular units because they will not exist in ARINC 729aircraft installations.2.3 Interwiring (contd)NOTE: The dual-computer system architecture describedin Chapter 4
48、is based on the fact the two EDACS and thetwo SDACS (if used) are identical and interchangeable.The functions performed by each computer arecharacterized by the interwiring.COMMENTARYWhy Standardize Wiring?The standardized interwiring is the heart of anARINC Characteristic. It is this feature whicha
49、llows the airline customer to complete hisnegotiation with the airframe manufacturer so thatthe latter can proceed with engineering and initialfabrication prior to airline commitment on a specificsource of equipment. This provides the equipmentmanufacturer with many valuable months in whichto put the final “polish” on his equipment indevelopment.The readers attention is directed to the interwiringguidance in ARINC Report 414, Section 5.0. Thismaterial defines all of the basic standards utilized inairframe wiring installations, and all equipmentmanufacturers should make themselves fami
