Abstract
An aircraft avionics system utilizes ARINC 429 compliant equipment, connected to one or more ARINC 429 data buses, and ARINC 629 equipment, coupled to one or more ARINC 629 data buses. Communication between the ARINC 429 and ARINC 629 equipment is facilitated by a data conversion gateway function (DCGF) system. The DCGF transforms ARINC 429 signals on one ARINC 429 bus for transmission over a second ARINC 429 bus, or over one or more ARINC 629 buses. The DCGF also transforms ARINC 629 signals on one ARINC 629 bus for transmission over a second ARINC 629 bus, or over one or more ARINC 429 buses.
