  • FADEC and avionic component distributed architecture
    Patent number: 8825227
    Abstract: A device for a motorized aircraft includes at least one avionic component positioned in the aircraft, at least one engine interface positioned in the aircraft and at least one engine controller positioned in or near an engine of the aircraft. The at least one engine interface is designed to exchange data between the at least one avionic component and the at least one engine controller. The at least one engine interface is generic and able to communicate with engine controllers of various types that may be mounted on the aircraft. The at least one engine controller is specific to a particular engine.

  • Device for determining the position of a throttle lever in an aircraft
    Patent number: 8480037
    Abstract: A device for determining a position of a throttle lever includes position sensors each connected to a primary flight control computer, position sensors each connected to an engine management computer, the position sensors being split into at least three groups of sensors with no common simple failure mode, and at least one interface computer, that includes at least one input to receive measurement information emitted by the computers connected to the position sensors and outputs leading to the engine management computer.

  • FADEC AND AVIONIC COMPONENT DISTRIBUTED ARCHITECTURE
    Publication number: 20100292870
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for motorized aircraft comprising at least one avionic component (300) positioned in the said aircraft, at least one engine interface (310) positioned in the said aircraft and at least one engine controller (315) positioned in or near an engine (320) of the said aircraft. According to the device of the invention, the said at least one engine interface (310) is designed to exchange data between the said at least one avionic component (300) and the said at least one engine controller (315). The said at least one engine interface (310) is generic and able to communicate with engine controllers (315) of various types that may be mounted on said aircraft. The said at least one engine controller is specific to a particular engine.
