This unit
The AIM AXI1553-2 is a MIL-STD-1553A/B VXIbus test and simulation module delivering full-function protocol testing, simulation, monitoring, and data bus analysis for aerospace and defense applications. Two independent, dual-redundant MIL-STD-1553A/B databus streams operate concurrently without performance degradation, enabling Bus Controller emulation, multiple Remote Terminal simulation, and chronological monitoring at full bus load. The module integrates multiple RISC processors within an Application Support Processor (ASP) Common Core architecture, supported by a Physical Bus Interface (PBI) daughter board for MIL-STD-1553A/B connections.

AIM AXI1553-2 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the AIM AXI1553-2. Calibration covers all module-specific parameters per manufacturer datasheet, output accuracy and linearity, frequency accuracy, and VXI register and trigger bus compliance. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common AIM AXI1553-2 faults: relay contact wear, DAC/ADC drift, VXI backplane connector oxidation. Common faults include relay contact wear, DAC or ADC gain drift, and VXI backplane edge connector oxidation. Most modules are repaired at the component level with full post-repair verification in a C-size or D-size mainframe.
