Modern avionics systems rely heavily on complex control systems that utilize real-time data buses such as MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429. As experts in avionics communications technologies, AIT offers a wide range of avionics bus and network interfaces, supporting software, and engineering expertise to ensure the success of any avionics system test program, including demanding Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) applications.

Depot and operational level testers must support a wide range of testing capabilities. To achieve this, it is essential that Automated Test Equipment (ATE) systems can handle MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 interfaces, which remain relevant as aircraft system life cycles are extended. AIT’s FPGA designs are independent of third-party designs, ensuring long-term support for ATE systems.
