{{Uses TemplateStyles|Template:Infobox avionics/styles.css}}

== Purpose ==
This template will provide a standardized display of attributes about the large variety of avionics equipment employed in aircraft worldwide. It may be applied to all kinds of [[avionics]] equipment articles agnostic of the purpose, use, or nationality of any given device.

== Full syntax ==
Copy the list of parameters below into your avionics article (before the lead), and fill in the appropriate attributes. To determine whether a parameter is required or not and other details, please see the Template Data section at the bottom of this page.
