Abaco Systems / Condor Engineering PCI-1553-SS MIL-STD-1553 PCI Interface

The Abaco Systems / Condor Engineering PCI-1553-SS is a PCI interface card designed for simulating, monitoring, and testing MIL-STD-1553 data buses. This card provides robust functionality for engineers and system integrators working with 1553 avionics protocols. It supports both MIL-STD-1553A/B and MacAir protocols, offering flexibility for various applications. The PCI-1553-SS is noted as being for legacy designs only and is in a Last Time Buy (LTB) window, with sales planned to cease by the end of June 2011.
