Features

  • Provides sharply focused coverage for anyone involved in building, integrating, and approving avionics systems
  • Walks through the development and implementation process
  • Offers real examples of deployments in modern aircraft such as the Boeing B-777 and the Airbus A-330/340
  • Includes the most up-to-date information on the latest technologies and certification standards

    • Summary

    Renamed to reflect the increased role of digital electronics in modern flight control systems, Cary Spitzer's industry-standard Digital Avionics Handbook, Second Edition is available in two comprehensive volumes designed to provide focused coverage for specialists working in different areas of avionics development. The second installment, Avionics: Development and Implementation explores the practical side of avionics. The book examines such topics as modeling and simulation, electronic hardware reliability, certification, fault tolerance, and several examples of real-world applications. New chapters discuss RTCA DO-297/EUROCAE ED-124 integrated modular avionics development and the Genesis platform.
