Shadin Avionics, a global leader in avionics interface solutions, released the Digital Discrete Switch (DDS) data converter with a purchase order from a major business jet manufacturer. The DDS was derived from Shadin's versatile AIS-360 digital platform and requirements were defined by an urgent customer need to keep their aircraft introduction schedule on track. The flexibility and modularity of the AIS-360 platform enabled the customer defined DDS box to be developed and qualified in less than one month; meeting the customer's need with a cost effective, certifiable solution.

Shadin developed the family of AIS data converters to quickly respond to an ever present demand for unique flight worthy data conversion applications on aircraft. The AIS-360 Digital Discrete Switch converter now joins the AIS-380 analog, AIS-360 digital, AIS-450 synchro and AIS-460 military 1553 in Shadin's family of FAA certified data converters.
