Standard T.50

ITU-T recommendation T.50 specifies the International Reference Alphabet (IRA), formerly International Alphabet No.

5 (IA5), a character encoding. ASCII is the U.S. variant of that character set.

The original version from November 1988 corresponds to ISO 646. The current version is from September 1992.

History

At the beginning was the International Telegraph Alphabet No. 2 (ITA2), a five bits code. IA5 is an improvement based on seven bits bytes.
