Abstract: The data distribution network (DDN) improves processing throughputs (eight million bytes per second) whenever high data rates of unsorted data are input to a processing system by combining synethetic (hash) addresses with look-up tables. The DDN includes coarse steering logic, fine steering logic, and assignment logic for partially sorting and filtering data so that subsequent analysis procedures can find the data in a more orderly form. This increase the pulse density handling capability of a processing system without major size and weight impact.

Abstract: Test circuitry for exercising and testing the operability of antiskid and automatic braking control circuits in an aircraft braking system. The invention includes a digital processor communicating with an interface circuit associated with each antiskid control circuit and the automatic braking system valve drivers. Each such interface circuit includes an analog switch receiving an electrical stimulus from the processor and applying the same to various test points in the associated antiskid control circuit or automatic braking system valve drivers. An analog selector is connected to various test points in the antiskid control circuits and automatic braking system valve drivers to sense the responses to the electrical stimulus and to pass such responses to the processor to determine the operability of the antiskid and automatic braking control systems.
