General Description:
The Aeroflex Circuit Technology
ACT4455 / 4459 series are next
generation monolithic transceiver
designs
which
provides
full
compliance with MIL-STD-1553A/B
and 1760 requirements in the
smallest packages with low power
consumption and single power supply
operation.
The ACT4455 / 4459 series
performs the front-end analog
function of inputting and outputting
data through a transformer to the
MIL-STD-1553 data bus.
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.
Efficient
transmitter electrical and thermal
design provides low internal power
dissipation and heat rise at high as
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
1:2.5 ratio transformer, isolated on
the data bus side with two 52.5 Ohm
fault isolation resistors, and loaded by
two 70 Ohm terminations, the data
bus signal is typically 7.5 Volts P-P
at A-A' (See Figure 5). 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,
