Holt Integrated Circuits announced the introduction of HI-8475, a novel ARINC 429 receiver designed specifically for use without a microprocessor. All configuration and control is programmed using logic input pins, eliminating the need for a microprocessor or software interface and the related costs for software certification.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced an extended temperature version of the popular HI-15530, a MIL-STD-1553 encoder/decoder used extensively on legacy military platforms and down-hole drilling applications. The device can operate in the temperature range -55°C to +200°C and is also a drop-in replacement for the Intersil HD-15530.

Holt Integrated Circuits was presented with the 2012 Gold Supplier Award by Stack International, a consortium of leading defense and aerospace OEMs committed to component evaluation and source certification. Stack International is comprised of member companies Lockheed Martin, Honeywell International, GE Aviation Systems, Rockwell Collins, Northrop Grumman, United Technologies, Crane Aerospace, Plexus Corporation, Meggitt AB Systems and Aero Engine Controls.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced the introduction of a new MIL-STD-1553 development kit with a PCI Express (PCIe) interface. The kit is based on Holt’s popular 3.3V BC/MT/RT multi-terminal device, HI-6130, and interfaces with a PCIe slot on a Windows 7 personal computer.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced that Shadin Avionics selected its MIL-STD-1553 BC/MT/RT terminal IC, HI-6131PCTF, and stacked dual core isolation transformer, PM-DB2762, for use in their TSO Certified Avionics Interface System, AIS-460. Shadin Avionics AIS-460 converts MIL-STD-1553 to ARINC 429 and other avionics signals.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced the introduction of HI-8436, a new 3.3V, 32-channel, discrete-to-digital sensing IC with SPI interface and low threshold sensing capability. The sense input thresholds and hysteresis are programmable via the 20MHz SPI port in 100mV steps, from 0.4V to 5.2V and all 32 sense output states may be read with a single SPI command.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced the release of a new Analog Switch product family capable of operating up to 200°C. These devices target high temperature avionics and industrial applications like data bus isolation, distributed engine control and down-hole well drilling telemetry.

Holt Integrated Circuits today announced the introduction of development kits for a 3.3V, 10Mbit/sec EBR-1553 solution. The kits include all necessary hardware, software (including source code) and feature Holt’s HI-6140, an integrated terminal designed for Enhanced Bit Rate 10Mbps MIL-STD-1553 or MIL-STD-1760 applications, such as Miniature Munitions Stores Interface (MMSI) or EBR-1553.

Holt Integrated Circuits demonstrated the collection of sensor data and periodic real-time transmission on an ARINC 429 bus with no software or MCU.

Holt Integrated Circuits announced the introduction of a new Graphical User Interface (GUI), designed to provide customers with an interactive tool for MIL-STD-1553 remote terminal (RT) configuration.
