Micro-ACE® TE | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM, Dual Transceivers | PBGA-324 | |
Mini-ACE® Mark3 | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM, Dual Transceivers | CQFP-80 | |
Total-ACE® | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM, Dual Transceivers, Dual Transformers | PBGA-312 | |
Enhanced Mini-ACE® | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM, Dual Transceivers | CQFP-72 | |
Micro-ACE® | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM, Dual Transceivers | PBGA-128 | |
Simple System RT | SSRT Protocol, Dual Transceivers | CQFP-72 | |
Simple System RT Mark3 | SSRT Protocol, Dual Transceivers | CQFP-80 | |
Mini-ACE®, | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM Dual Transceivers | CQFP-72 | |
Mini-ACE®, | BC/MT/RT Protocol, SRAM Dual Transceivers | CPGA-81 |
The new family of devices, HI-6280, are fully functional drop-in replacements for DDC® Mini-ACE® and Mini-ACE Plus® families. The form, fit and function drop-ins allow users the option to realize significant cost savings, reduced lead-times, and avoid obsolescence when compared to existing hybrid or multi-chip module solutions.
The unique single-chip monolithic design allows mitigation of third-party supply chain issues and guarantees stable pricing and longevity over the life of aerospace programs.
“These new drop-in devices offer customers a second source for legacy designs, enabling the most cost-effective long-term solution for continued supply and price stability” said Sean Sleicher, Director of Business Development for Holt Integrated Circuits.
