“MIL-STD-1553 is a military standard that defines the
electrical and protocol characteristics for a data bus. A data bus is used to
provide a medium for the exchange of data and information between various
systems. It is similar to what the personal computer and office automation
industry has dubbed a Local Area Network (LAN).”
MIL-STD-1553 is master / slave redundant bus protocol
for achieving command and control (SCADA) in a military device environment. It
provides for deterministic exchange between nodes on the bus of information.
Multiple bus masters may exist on the bus and can compete for the right to
master the bus at any given time. There is a substantial effort in this
standard to support high availability of services and graceful degradation due
to failure of bus nodes and segments.
