    3-3 SIGNAL TIMING When data is read by EOC (End Of Conversion) logic, read BCD data, minus (-) polarity data, and over data within 10 msec from rising (positive) edge (When data changed to Hi from Lo). When the data is read by reversing the EOC logic, read the BCD data, minus (-) polarity data, and over data within 10 msec from falling (negative) edge (When data changed to Lo from Hi).
