The ARINC 818 video protocol since its inception has gained wide adoption on large aircrafts such as Airbus A350XWB, Boeing 787, KC46A, and many others.
ARINC 818 protocol is used to provide point to point, high-speed, low-latency video transmission for mission-critical systems such as cockpit display, video processors, cameras, and IR sensors. Offering high-speed ARINC 818 interfaces in FPGA arises many challenges due to low-latency and synchronous timing requirements for most displays.
iWave Systems, being the leading FPGA design house, offers an extensive portfolio of FPGA IP Cores. And one of the most predominant being ARINC 818 IP. Today, we are excited to announce the successful implementation of iWave’s ARINC 818 IP Core on Microsemi PolarFire FPGA devices. The PolarFire devices offer the highest security, small form factor, flash-based FPGA, that consume 50% low power competing to mid-range FPGA’s.
Key features include:
- Fully compliant with ARINC 818-2 standards
- Can be used for both transmit and receive applications
- Flexible streaming video interface
- Configurable ADVB video formats(resolution, pixel type, etc.)
- Supports progressive and interlaced video formats
- IP parameters can be configured as per customers interface control document(ICD)
- Transmission medium – either optical or copper
