1.3 Parallel Altitude Data Port Specifications

Code Format:
In accordance with the U.S. National Standard for Common
System Component Characteristics for the I.F.F. Mark X (SIF) Air
Traffic Control Radar Beacon System, SIF/ATCRBS.
Driver Description:
The parallel altitude data output is provided by the "uncommitted"
collectors of a transistor array and must be "pulled-up" through a
resistive load by the transponder.
Pull-Up Voltage:
