MIL-STD-1553B is a military specification for a Digital Time Division Command/Response Data Bus, featuring half-duplex, Manchester II encoding. A main bus controller (BC) manages communication, while remote terminals (RTs) respond. It defines terminal operations, word structure, messaging protocol, and electrical characteristics.
