- Definição1
- An aircraft computer that receives and processes pitot pressure, static pressure, and temperature to calculate very precise altitude, indicated airspeed, true airspeed, and air temperature.

- Definição2
- ADC calculates flight parameters such as true air speed (ITAS) and static pressure from air date sensors such as pilot head, total temperature probes and angle of attack sensor; drives displays and indicators (e.g. altitude, IAS), sets gains in automatic pilot, and gives information to other aircraft systems.

- Definição3
- An electronic digital computer in aircraft that senses or computes static and pilot pressure, outside air and total air temperature, IAS (indicated air speed), TAS (true air speed), pressure altitude, Mach number, angle of attack, and angle of yaw. All these are corrected for their known errors. Engine and flight control system computers use the output of air data computers.
