this page for the latest versions of ASIM baseline software and
information. If you are a registered user of an ASIM development kit, you
will generally be notified of changes to items on this page. For security
reasons, this site does not include everything that is in the ASIM development
kit, but only content negotiated to include items which are most frequently
updated. If there is something that you are looking for which is not
present, please contact support. These

At
the end of 2007, AFRL called for changes in design of the ASIM module. The
new design is carried in the X3 revision. The X2 revision has been in use
for over two years, so support resources are being maintained for a period of
time. However, the materials specifically for the X2 ASIM are no
longer being updated, so users are encouraged to transition development to the
X3 revision. The versions are very similar and the transition should be
fairly straight forward in most cases, but the differences in support will be
more significant as time passes.

generation one ASIM email support on asimsupport (at) datadesigncorp.net

ASIM Development Kit Users Guide For ASIM Revision X2 (pdf)
This document describes the ASIM and the development kit, and provides
application guidance. |
ASIM Development Kit Users Guide For ASIM Revision X3 (pdf)
This document describes the ASIM and the development kit, and provides

See release notes in this manual for differences
versus the X2 version. |
ASIM Minisys Driver For Linux (zip)
This file includes the latest driver required to operate the ASIM with SDM on a
Linux system. Please note that Data Design does not maintain the SDM
system and interfaces to SDM are beyond the scope of available support.
This driver is a critical enabling element in the interface process, and is the
end point of Data Design support for SDM software. The driver is provided
here in source code form only because users will generally need to compile a
separate binary for each target system.

Windows
Test Utility For ASIM Development Kit (zip)
This
file includes the installation files for the ASIM development kit software
as described for version X3 of the ASIM hardware.
This
version will work with the X2 ASIM except for the bread board application
example. There are new features that an X2 user may find useful.

Spacewire
Modem (pdf)
The
PnPSat architecture has moved to SPA-S only data communication. This
leaves the desktop ASIM developer at a disadvantage for lack of a
spacewire port to connect, at least with any reasonable cost, lead time,
and level of support. The spacewire modem uses a reprogrammed ASIM
module to provide basic spacewire connectivity over USB.

Manual
For Robust Hub X4 (pdf)
The robust hub is a SPA-U data and
power router built around an X2 ASIM and a USB hub core. |
Manual
For PnPSat Power HUB (pdf)
The
PnPSat architecture has moved to SPA-S only data communication while
maintaining the power and sync signal routing features of SPA-U and the
robust hub. This version of the robust hub fills that function
without the USB hub core. The design includes an ASIM X3 module and
a supporting Actel gate array.
|
Manual
For SPA Power Distribution Circuit Breaker Module (pdf)
This 30A
circuit breaker and current measurement device is designed to work with
the robust hub. The module does not contain an ASIM. It does
work with all versions of the robust hub or power hub, but it has
generally not been applied in system designs to date. |
