GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex-Plainview transceiver model ACT4406N is a new generation monolithic transceiver which provide full
compliance with Macair and MIL-STD-1553 data bus requirements.
The model ACT4406N performs the front-end analog function of inputting and outputting data through a transformer to a
MIL-STD-1553 or Macair data bus. The ACT4406N can be considered a "Universal" Transceiver in that it is compatible with
MIL-STD-1553A/B, Macair (A-3818, A-4905, A-5232 and A-5690).
Design of these transceivers reflects particular attention to active filter performance. This results in low bit and word error rate
with superior waveform purity and minimal zero crossover distortion. The ACT4406N active filter design has additional high
frequency roll-off to provide the required Macair low harmonic distortion waveform without increasing the pulse delay
characteristics significantly.
Efficient transmitter electrical and thermal design provides low internal power dissipation and heat rise at high and well as low
duty cycles.
TRANSMITTER
The Transmitter section accepts bi-phase TTL data at the input and when coupled to the data bus with a 1:1 transformer the data
bus signal produced is 7.0 Volts typical P-P at point A-A’ (See Figure 3 or 4). When both DATA and DATA inputs are held low
or high, the transmitter output becomes a high impedance and is “removed” from the line. In addition, an overriding "INHIBIT''
input provides for the removal of the transmitter output from the line. A logic '' 1'' applied to the '' INHIBIT'' takes priority over
the condition of the data inputs and disables the transmitter (See Transmitter Logic Waveforms - Figure 1).
The transmitter utilizes an active filter to suppress harmonics above 1 MHz to meet Macair specifications A-3818, A-4905,
A-5232 and A-5690. The transmitter may be safely operated for an indefinite period at 100% duty cycle into a data bus short
circuit.
RECEIVER
The Receiver section accepts bi-phase differential data at the input and produces two TTL signals at the output. The outputs are
DATA and DATA, and represent positive and negative excursions of the input beyond a pre-determined threshold (See Receiver
Logic Waveforms - Figure 2).
The internal threshold is nominally set to detect data bus signals exceeding 1.10 Vp-p and reject signals less than 0.6 Vp-p when
used with a 1:1 turns ratio transformer (See Figure 3 or 4 for transformer data and typical connection). A low level at the
''STROBE'' input inhibits the DATA and DATA outputs. If unused, a 2K Ohm pull-up to +5V
DC
is recommended.

Notes: 1. Line to line waveforms illustrate Macair signals, MIL-STD-1553 signals are trapezoidal.
2. DATA and DATA inputs must be complementary waveforms or 50% duty cycle average, with no delays between them.
3. DATA and DATA must be in the same state during off time (both high or low).
