Aerospace Industry

Efficiency and Reliability
The aerospace industry has some of the most rigorous standards and regulations of any field – including the design of electronic control systems. Developing such systems is a high percentage of the overall cost. So efficiency is key. This is why dSPACE prototyping systems, automatic code generation, and hardware-in-the-loop systems are used in
numerous applications throughout the aerospace industry. dSPACE systems speed up the individual development phases and improve hand-off between them. Whether you use dSPACE systems throughout the entire development
or at individual stages, you can rely on them to make a real impact on the efficiency of your development cycle.

Suitable for Numerous Application Scenarios
The bandwidth of possible application scenarios for dSPACE products for the aerospace industry is very broad. You can use dSPACE products for applications such as aircraft controller design (FADECs, thrust reverser, cabin pressure control, etc.), for integration and test facilities (ITF), for helicopter applications, for civil or for defence aviation, for commercial or scientific puposes: dSPACE products can accelerate your development process and can help you improve the quality of your control software.

Connection to ARINC429 and MIL-STD-1553 Buses
For connecting modular dSPACE real-time systems to the ARINC429 avionics data bus and to the MIL-STD-1553 serial bus, dSPACE offers special interface boards and
Simulink^® blocksets:

• DS4401 MIL-STD-1553 Interface Board
  
• ARINC Interface

Via dSPACE Engineering Services, the MicroAutoBox – a compact, stand-alone prototyping unit – can be equipped with an ARINC interface on its IP module slot (used for FlexRay in the standard versions).
