MIL-STD-1553 is the standard for data communication over
shielded twisted pair cabling on board military platforms. The medium is typically
a shielded twisted pair cable with a characteristic impedance of 77/78 Ohms and
is configured as a bus structure. Each terminal is interfaced to the data bus
via couplers, which provide impedance matching, fault isolation and proper connector
termination. The applications for MIL-STD-1553 range from armored vehicles to
jet and prop aircraft, satellite systems and launch vehicles. North Hills offers
a full line of connectivity products and testers for MIL-STD-1553 applications.
High frequency wide bandwidth transformers are utilized for
Ground Isolation, Impedance Matching, Mixing and Splitting and to convert signals
from Balanced to Unbalanced ( Baluns ). North Hills designs and manufactures
a wide selection of high frequency transformers for Video Isolation, Medical
Imaging, Process Control, Data Communication, Test and Instrumentation and other
forms of Signal Processing.
