Phillips has released an AFDX(Avionics Full Duplex Switched Ethernet) PCI Mezzanine(PMC) card for avionics simulation and test. AFDX is an advanced protocol standard to interconnect avionics subsystems. Its first major use will be in the Airbus A3XX. The PMC694/AFDX module is among the first products on the market, supporting this new avionics bus. It is designed for applications like end system simulation, test systems and prototyping of avionics components. The greatest benefit from this implementation can be gained when used in the Phillips ADS-3000 V2 environment. The standard is based on widely approved and adopted standards like ethernet(IEEE 802. 3) and IP/UDP(Internet Protocols). Modifications to these standards have been made to cope with the need for deterministic response times and limited jitter.

PMC is a mezzanine bus concept that is based on the PCI bus specification. PMC cards are designed to be stacked on a VME CPU board and typically no more than 2 PMCs may be mounted on a 6U CPU. By contrast, up to 8 CompactPCI cards can be mounted on the same backplane. PMCs can only be installed or removed by first extracting the carrier board from the backplane which makes it less modular and more difficult to handle.
