ARINC825 Cards
ARINC825 (CAN bus) Modules with a Difference
AIM’s ARINC825 cards can work either with full functionality as an active CAN node for testing and simulating or in listening only mode for monitoring and recording purposes of Avionic CAN CC/FD and ARINC825 applications on up to 4 electrically isolated CAN bus nodes concurrently. All nodes are in conformance with the ISO11898-1/-2 standard. They are accessible by software separately and can be used as 4 independent CAN bus nodes. An onboard IRIG-B time decoder allows users to accurately synchronize single or multiple modules to a common time source. All supported signals are available through front I/O and rear I/O interface. ARINC825 cards consist of FPGA based CAN interface controllers for CAN 2.0A/B (Classic CAN) and CAN Flexible Datarate (FD) as well as support for IRIG-B synchronization with high resolution time stamping. All nodes are operating concurrently at CAN bus high speed bit rate of up to 1Mbit/s (CC) and up to 8Mbit/s (FD) with the intelligence to process scheduling of CAN frames in real time. Using AIM’s family of carrier cards our clients have off the shelf solutions in a broad range of card formats.
ARINC825 (CAN bus) modules are delivered with an Application Programming Interface (API) and Driver Software compatible with Windows (incl. LabView VIs) and Linux.
An ARINC825 Resource Component is available for AIM’s PBA.pro™ databus test and analysis tool including Tx and Rx simulation capabilities, a Chronological Bus Monitor and support for decoding of payload data within CAN messages. This allows to implement a powerful ARINC825 (CAN bus) analyzer or a complete test system in conjunction with other AIM avionics databus interfaces and PBA.pro™ supported 3rd party hardware.
