INTERFACING
The CT2553 is compatible with most common
microprocessors including, but not limited to, the
Motorola 680 x 0, the Intel 808x, Zilog Z800x and
MIL-STD-1750 processors.

Data
transformers and an external 16 MHz clock (See
Figure 2). Tri-state buffers are used to isolate the
CPU's data and address lines.
External RAM can be used instead of or in
conjunction with the CT2553's internal 8K x 16
bits. The external RAM used by the CT2553 can
be any standard static memory with an access
time of < 55ns. The external RAM can be
expanded to 64K x 16.
Two control signals, MEMENA-IN (pin 69) and
MEMENMA-OUT (pin 31) are provided in
addition to the standard memory I/O signals for
internal/external memory access control (See
Figures 3-5. MEMEN-OUT and MEMEN-IN
should be tied together for Internal Memory Only
configuration. Memory CS signals can be
generated for configurations using external
memory.
MEMORY MANAGEMENT
Memory can be configured to support two AREAs
(A and B), each with an independent sequential
stack
message and control data. The CPU can access
the shared RAM while 1553 message transfers
are taking place. Arbitration of the RAM is
automatically
transparent to the subsystem (See Figures
28-31). Variable Length DATA BLOCKS are also
stored in the shared RAM and can be addressed
by setting pointers residing in Area A, Area B or
both.
For BC/RTU operation, each area contains a
Descriptor Stack and Stack Pointer (See Figures
6 and 7). BC operation further maintains a
Message Count for each area (number of 1553
messages per frame). RTU operation maintains a
data block address Look-Up Table for each area.
MT operation utilizes a single Stack Pointer to
indicate the starting address for storage of
received words and associated identification
Words.
CURRENT AREA ASSIGNMENT/SWAPPING.
Current area status (currently available to the
1553 terminal) is Software programmable by the
host; the unassigned area automatically assumes
non-current area status. Both areas are always
addressable by the host. Swapping of the Current
Area can be done following message transfers for
user operations such as exception handling or
multiple buffering of 1553 data.
The host selects the Current Area by writing to
the CT2553’s Configuration Register with bit 13

set to the appropriate logic level (0 for area A or 1
for area B). Internal circuitry ensures that the
swapping of Current Area Status does not occur
during an ongoing message transfer (See
Configuration Register).
DESCRIPTOR
DESCRIPTOR STACK (DS) is divided into 64
entries. Each stack entry contains four words
which refer to one 1553 message. The Block
Status Word (BSW) indicates the physical bus on
which the message was received (RTU mode),
reports whether or not an error was detected
during message transfer and indicates message
completion (See Figure 8).
The user-supplied Time Tag word is loaded at the
start of a message transfer and is updated at the
end of the transfer (See Time Tagging).
