 Santa Barbara, CA-May 24, 2004  -- Condor Engineering, a leading provider of military and commercial avionics databus solutions, today announced the release of the industry's first dual-channel, multi-function MIL-STD-1553 PCMCIA Type II module. The new card is based on Condor's proven programmable logic device (PLD) core design that provides advanced features for 1553 test, simulation, data acquisition and system control.
