MIL-1760 has been around awhile now, but is no less important than when the military standard was originally released.
MIL 1760, a Department of Defense Interface Standard, was developed to reduce the proliferation of interfaces between aircraft and their stores, and instead to promote interoperability between weapons and aircraft platforms.
In 2007, the latest version of MIL-1760 was released, MIL -1760E. This version of MIL-1760 has been instrumental in employing the previously unused High Bandwidth 2 and High Bandwidth 4 pins of the standardized MIL-1760 connector.
These pins are utilized to carry a Fibre Channel based high speed digital databus, FC-AE-1553 which is an adaptation of MIL-STD-1553 for Fibre Channel.
The original version of the MIL-1760 defined a standardized electrical interface and connector that included both digital and analog databuses, a standardized message protocol (MIL-1553), power, and discrete signals.
MIL-1760 nominates certain signals as safety critical signal interfaces.
Today there are several different groups of MIL1760 signals:
- MIL-STD-704 power connections
- MIL-STD-1553 data communications interface
- High and low bandwidth analog signals
- Discrete signals
- Fiber optics
The MIL-STD-1760 protocol also offsets, to some degree, the disadvantages of using an event-triggered protocol for a safety critical application. While detecting errors and building fault-tolerant mechanisms for time triggered communication protocols is easier because more ‘a priori’ knowledge exists as to their behavior, the master/slave protocol does provide a more predictable communication protocol than other event triggered protocols such as bus contention or token passing.
This standard defines the connector, signal set definitions, topologies, types of interfaces, signal path requirements, and power along with special requirements for MIL-STD-1553 bus interfaces. This includes a command set with detailed message formats, along with a defined protocol for mass data transfer.
