5.4 RAM Interface
The BCRT’s RRD, RWR, and MEMCSO signals serve as
read and write controls during BCRT memory accesses. The
host subsystem signals RD, WR, and MEMCSI propagate
through the BCRT to become RRD, RWR, and MEMCSO
outputs to support a pseudo-dual-port. During BCRT-RAM
data transfers, the host subsystem’s memory signals are
ignored until the BCRT access is complete.
5.5 Transmitter/Receiver Interface
The BCRT’s Manchester II encoder/decoder interfaces
directly with the 1553 bus transceiver, using the TAO-TAZ
and RAZ-RAO signals for Channel A, and TBO-TBZ and
RBZ-RBO signals for Channel B.
