The digital pad is an EPROM whose address-input to data-output transfer
function meets the characteristics of a digital attenuator. The digital pad
accommodates both µ255-law and A-law coding. There are 32 combinations
each for µ255 to µ255, µ255 to A-law, A-law to µ255, and A-law to A-law.
These values are selected to meet the EIA loss and level plan.
