Core1553BRT-EBR Enhanced Bit Rate 1553 Remote Terminal
Command Legalization Interface
The core checks the validity of all 1553EBR command
words. In RTL and netlist versions of the core, the logic
may be implemented externally to the core. The
command word is provided, and the logic must generate
the command valid input. The command legalization
interface also provides two strobes that are used to latch
the command value to enable it to be used for address

Backend Interface
The backend interface supports both synchronous
operation (to the core clock) and asynchronous
operation to backend devices (Table
Description
When '0', the core uses its own internal command valid logic, enabling all legal supported
mode codes and all sub-addresses.
When '1', the core disables its internal logic and uses the external CMDOKAY input for
command legality.

These outputs are valid throughout the complete 1553EBR message. They can also be used to
steer data to particular backend devices. In particular, bit 11 allows non-broadcast and
broadcast messages to be differentiated.

Command word is okay output. When USEEXTOK = '0', the core outputs its internal
command word okay validation signal.
CMDVAL address latch enable output (active high) is used to latch the CMDVAL when it is
being used for an address mapping function. ADDRLAT should be connected to the enable of
a rising edge clock flip-flop.
CMDVAL interrupt vector latch enable output (active high) is used to latch the CMDVAL when
it is being used for an extended interrupt vector function. INTLAT should be connected to the
enable of a rising edge clock flip-flop.
