Defines the characteristics of the data bus line and components up to the interface with electronic components of the system.

This British Standard establishes requirements for data bus interconnecting systems for aerospace applications. It defines the characteristics of the data bus line and components up to the interface with electronic components of the system.

Digital data transmission systems fall basically into two categories working at data rates either above or below 100 kilobits/second. The electrical requirements of the components of the transmission systems in these categories are different and the categories are classified in this standard as follows:

type A systems, operating at rates of 100 kilobits/second or less;

type B systems, operating at rates greater than 100 kilobits/second.

NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
