The AX5243 and AX5043 are essentially identical, but the former does not
have the single-ended output (in addition to the normal differential
output). We use both outputs on the RT-IHU right now (SE is 70cm down,
Diff is 2m up). Going with the '5243 means we'd have to rethink the
Cmd/Tlm paradigm between processors -- and, if one '5243 failed, we'd
lose either TX or RX with no backup.
