BU-61559 Series
E-03/06-0
BUFFERED MODE
In the buffered mode (reference FIGURE 19), the processor data
and address buses connect directly to the corresponding buses
of the BU-61559. In this mode, the shared memory size is limit-
ed to the 8K X 16 of internal RAM. In the buffered mode, the
internal address latches and data buffers serve to isolate the
external processor address/data buses from the internal memo-
ry address/data buses.
The BU-61559 supports a direct interface to a multiplexed
processor bus by means of the input signal ADDR_LAT. When
ADDR_LAT is high, the latch/buffers for A15-A0 are in their trans-
parent mode. When ADDR_LAT is low, the latch/buffers for A15-
A0 are in their latched mode. In the buffered mode, the address
abled for 1553 accesses. The bidirectional data buffers are
directed inward for CPU write transfers, outward for CPU read
transfers, and are disabled for 1553 transfers.

NOTES for FIGURE 18:
(1) Shown for one of two redundant buses that interface to the BU-61559/60 Series hybrid.
(2) Transmitted voltage level on 1553 bus is 6 Vp-p min, 7 Vp-p nominal, 9 Vp-p max.
(3) Required tolerance on isolation resistors is 2%. Instantaneous power dissipation (when transmitting) is approximately 0.5 W (typ), 0.8 W (max).
(4) Transformer pin numbering is correct for DDC BUS-25679 or BUS-29854 transformer. For the Beta transformer (e.g., B-2203) or the QPL-21038-31 transformer (e.g.,
M21038/27-02), the winding sense and turns ratio are mechanically the same, but the pin numbering is reversed. Therefore, it is necessary to reverse pins 8 and 4 or
pins 7 and 5 in the diagram for the Beta or QPL transformers.
In the buffered mode, the output MEMENA-OUT must be con-
nected to the input MEMENA-IN.
TRANSPARENT MODE
The transparent mode (reference FIGURE 20) supports an inter-
face to up to 64K words of external shared RAM and/or to a
STANAG-3910 component set. In the transparent mode, the
memory control signals MEMENA-OUT, MEMOE, and MEMWR
are used to read and write data from/to external RAM. MEMENA-
OUT is the BU-61559's Chip Select (CS) output signal. For inter-
nal RAM accesses, the input MEMENA-IN should be asserted
low. When there is no ongoing memory access, or for accesses
to external RAM, MEMENA-IN should be presented as a logic 1.
In the transparent mode, the address buffers drive the CPU
address onto the internal memory bus for CPU transfers; for
1553 transfers, the internal memory address is asserted on the
external address bus. The data buffers are directed outward for
