Description / Abstract:
SCOPE:
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers air data computer equipment
(hereinafter designated the
computer) which when connected to sources of aircraft electrical
power, static pressure, total
pressure, outside air temperature, and others specified by the
manufacturer (singly or in
combination) provides some or all of the following computed air data
output signals (in analog and/
or digital form) which may supply primary flight instruments:
Pressure Altitude
Pressure Altitude, Baro-Corrected
Vertical Speed
Calibrated Airspeed
Mach Number
Maximum Allowable Airspeed
Overspeed Warning
Total Air Temperature
In addition, the computer may supply one or more of the following
signals:
Pressure Altitude, Digitized
Equivalent Airspeed
True Airspeed
Static Air Temperature
Altitude Hold
Airspeed Hold
Mach Hold
Angle of Attack
Flight Control Gain Scheduling
Others
Purpose:
This Standard defines minimum performance requirements under standard
and environmental conditions
for Air Data Computer equipment for use in Subsonic Aircraft.
