● A suffix multiplier is represented by an uppercase or lowercase character.
For example, 1E3 Hz is represented by 1 kHz assuming 1E3 = k.
● A suffix unit is represented by an uppercase or lowercase character.
● Placing E at the beginning of <SUFFIX PROGRAM DATA> is prohibited because it may be confused with the
E used for floating-point decimal numerics.
