Modulo-Two to ARINC-429 converter

Converting a Modulo-Two Serial Stream to Arinc-429 Serial Words.

What's it for?

The Modulo-Two Serial Stream originates from a rather obsolete (around 1970 style) airborn High Frequency Communication Radio Control Panel. This panel is installed in the cockpit and it controls a High Frequency Transceiver located in an aircrafts electronic compartment. The panel is a Collins Controller 514A-4 and the transceiver a Collins HF Receiver Transmitter HFS-700.

Why do we need one?

We want this panel to control a somewhat less obsolete High Frequency Communication Transceiver (1990 to 2010?) that requires Arinc-429 standard control signals.

OK, show us.

The converter is an electronic device build in a box. Signals from the panel go in, and the output is routed to the transceiver. The device consists of an electronic circuit board and connectors. On this board a microcontroller works together with some support circuits to transform the incoming serial stream in Arinc-429 serial words.

Questions

How big is the Mod2Arinc PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Mod2Arinc use?

105 parts, built around the ATMEGA328-PU, R-78B1.5-1.0, TL082 and BS170. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Mod2Arinc KiCad files?

From the morris6/Modulo-Two_ARINC-429_Converter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Mod2ArincProject/Mod2Arinc.kicad_pcb and its schematic Mod2ArincProject/Mod2Arinc.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mod2Arinc design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask morris6 before reusing the design.
