Minuet™ is a family of 8mm or 17mm Square, standalone, Mil-Std-1553B protocol terminals that include Bus Controller (BC), Remote Terminal (RT) and Monitor (MT). Depending on the configuration, Minuet can be configured as BC/RT/MT or RT+MT.

Minuet™ devices are software compatible with DDC® Enhanced MiniACE® components and architecture, with 8K or 16K Words of internal memory.

Operating Clock frequency is flexible. A wide range of frequencies are available and selectable by writing to a register within the device. This eliminates long bus cycles and reduces EMI/RFI problems often caused by multiple clock domains on boards.

Users can select between Local Bus or PCI interface supporting 32 bits, 66MHz, PCI burst mode for very fast data transfer to and from the device.​
