Aeronautical Radio Incorporated 429 Controller IIP

ARINC429 CONTROLLER IIP

Overview

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

The SivaKali Tech ARINC429 CONTROLLER IIP is a highly reliable, silicon-proven IP core designed for high-performance system integration. Engineered to meet strict industry compliance standards, this core offers exceptional flexibility and ease of integration into both ASIC and FPGA designs. Engineered for ADAS, infotainment, and vehicle control units (ECUs). Validated on leading FPGA platforms and foundry nodes, it provides a low-risk, time-to-market advantage for developers.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

Automotive Grade: Developed with ISO 26262 functional safety processes (ASIL-B/D Ready).

High Reliability: Robust error handling and fault tolerance for mission-critical vehicle networks.

Legacy & Future: Supports both classic protocols and modern, high-speed automotive networking standards.

Cost Effective: Affordable licensing for high-volume automotive production runs.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CORE: Core module interconnects all the sub-modules in the ARINC429 Controller IP. Ports of core module are the top level ports for the ARINC429 Controller IP.

PRESCALER: Prescaler module is used to divide the system clock based on the given prescaler value to derive the serial clock input for transmission and reception of ARINC429 Controller.

SOURCE_FSM: Source fsm module implements ARINC429 Source controller state machine.

SINK_FSM: Sink fsm module implements ARINC429 Sink controller state machine.

CSR: CSR module has all the Control and status registers. The contents of the registers are decoded and assigned to its respective output ports based on its functionality. This block contains interrupt enable and status registers.
