Consider the following bus and topology pairs:

ARINC 429 - Single transmitter, multiple receivers

MIL-STD-1553 - Bus controller with remote terminals

ARINC 664 - Switched network with virtual links

ARINC 429 - Multiple transmitters sharing one bus

How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  • A.Only one
  • B.Only two
  • C.All four
  • D.Only three

Answer: D

Correct answer: Only three

The first three are correct: ARINC 429 has a single transmitter broadcasting to many receivers, MIL-STD-1553 has a bus controller directing remote terminals, and ARINC 664 is a switched network carrying virtual links.

The fourth contradicts the first. ARINC 429 permits exactly one transmitter per bus - that is the whole basis of its simplicity, since with no contention there is nothing to arbitrate. Where a list pairs one item with two incompatible descriptions, one of them must be the false entry.
