The MIL-STD-1553 Training Seminar presents a thorough discussion of MIL-STD-1553 theory, application and testing.  Problem areas in the standard are clarified and available options are examined.  Two lab sessions illustrate the material being taught by providing students with “hands-on” experience in identifying 1553 communication and trouble-shooting remote terminal problems.

MIL-STD-1553 Training covers the following topics:

• MIL-STD-1553: Introduction to Multiplexing & MIL-STD-1553
• MIL-STD-1553:  Definitions, Encoding & Formats
• MIL-STD-1553: Protocol
• MIL-STD-1553: MIL-STD-1553: Terminal Operation
• MIL-STD-1553: Hardware Characteristics
• And More…

The instructor, has over thirty years of experience in the design and development of multiplex equipment for data bus applications.  In the Seminar, he uses a well-rounded approach of lecture, lab sessions, visuals, notes, question and answer, and samples from 1553 manufacturers to communicate concepts in a clear and dynamic manner.  He provides personal assistance during the lab sessions.

The 1553 Seminar notebook contains over 130 pages of class notes, MIL-STD-1553 and information on 1553 testing.  Vendor literature on 1553 related products is also made available.
