Avionics Qualification Test Supporting Equipment Avionics Test Cards for Qualification and Verification Testing
Avionics Qualification Test Supporting Equipment Avionics qualification testing is the most important part of avionics design process, which is required to support certification. Qualification test failures lead to modification of avionics and/or support equipment. Use of support equipment, which meets all EMI/Env requirements, significantly decreases qualification troubleshooting time. Test support equipment is used for proper simulation of the aircraft environment during qualification testing. This equipment simulates real loading of Equipment Under Test (EUT) communication interfaces, provides EMI protection of standard avionics simulation test cards (if used instead of an active loopback approach) and isolate avionics interfaces from interference, if a loopback test approach is used. Current avionics design practice is to design or redesign legacy specific support test equipment for a project. It usually takes significant engineering effort. This type of effort can be minimized by using EDS avionics qualification test cards, which are specially designed for avionics interfaces. The design of these cards complies with the highest level of qualification requirements and specific test conditions, which are normally required by most aircraft designers.
Avionics Qualification Test Supporting Equipment Major requirements for avionics qualification supporting equipment: - Electrical compatibility with EUT interfaces - Protection from EMI environment during test - Ability to simulate electrical loading for interfaces under test - Ability to provide EMI protected connection between tested avionics and standard avionics simulator - Ability to create flexible avionics interface channel connections for loopback approach realization - Ability to provide electrical and loading separations in case of loopback test approach EDS has developed and successfully implemented standard support test cards for avionics qualification testing EDS produces wide range of avionics qualification test cards, which support qualification testing of avionic interfaces: ARINC664 (Ethernet) ARINC429 ARINC717 Discrete Ground/Open Discrete Voltage/Open RS422 RS232 Analog Interfaces (DC, AC, Resolver )
