DESCRIPTION
The HI-8591 is an ARINC 429 bus interface receiver
designed to operate from a single 3.3 V or 5 V supply. The
part is designed with high-impedance inputs to minimize
bus loading, and has an exceptional input common-mode
performance in excess of +/- 30V, making it immune to
ground offsets around the aircraft. The RINA and RINB
inputs of the standard HI-8591 may be connected directly
to the ARINC 429 bus. To enable external lightning protec-
tion circuitry to be added, the HI-8591-40 variant is avail-
able. The HI-8591-40 requires only the addition of external
40 K
W
, ¼ watt resistors in series with RINA and RINB to
allow the part to meet the lightning protection requirements
of DO-160D level 3.
The typical 10 volt differential ARINC 429 signal is trans-
lated and input to a window comparator and latch. The
comparator levels are set just below the standard 6.5 volt
minimum ARINC data threshold and just above the stan-
dard 2.5 volt maximum ARINC null threshold.
The TESTA and TESTB inputs bypass the analog inputs for
testing purposes. Also if TESTA and TESTB are both taken
high, the digital outputs are forced to zero.
See Holt Application Note AN-300 for more information on
lightning protection.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
RECEIVER
Figure 1 shows the general architecture of the ARINC 429
receiver. The receiver operates off the VCC supply only.
The inputs RINA and RINB each require 140K
W
of resis-
tance between the ARINC bus and comparator. This resis-
tance is completely on-chip for the HI-8591. In contrast,
the HI-8591-40 has 100 K
W
on-chip and requires an exter-
nal 40K
W
, ¼ watt resistor on each of the ARINC 429 input
pins. The HI-8591-40 device is typically chosen for appli-
cations where lightning protection is a requirement.
After level translation, the inputs are buffered and become
inputs to a differential amplifier. The amplitude of the differ-
ential signal is compared to levels derived from a divider
between VCC and Ground. The nominal settings corre-
spond to a One/Zero amplitude of 6.0V and a Null ampli-
tude of 3.3V.
The status of the ARINC receiver input is latched. A Null
input resets the latches and a One or Zero input sets the
latches.
The logic at the output is controlled by the test signal
which is generated by the logical OR of the TESTA and
TESTB pins. If TESTA and TESTB are both One, the HI-
8591 outputs are pulled low. This allows the digital out-
puts of a transmitter to be connected to the test inputs
through control logic for system self-test purposes.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Figure 2 shows a possible application of the
HI-8591 interfacing an ARINC 429 bus input
to a 3.3V ASIC or FPGA. In this example a
HI-8586 ARINC 429 line driver is used to
take 3.3V logic outputs and generate the nec-
essary 10V differential signal for driving an
ARINC 429 bus.

HI-8591
HEAT SINK - CHIP-SCALE PACKAGE ONLY
The HI-8591PCI and HI-8591PCT use a 16-pin plastic
chip-scale (QFN) package. This package has a metal heat
sink pad on its bottom surface. This heat sink should be
soldered down to the printed circuit board for optimum
thermal dissipation. The heat sink is electrically isolated
from the chip and can be soldered to any ground or power
plane. However, since the chip’s substrate is at V+,
connecting the heat sink to this power plane is
recommended to avoid coupling noise into the circuit.
