## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMBOUT THE CREW NOTED THAT THE AIRCRAFT WOULD NOT PRESSURIZE.  THE CREW DECLARED EMERGENCY, RETURNED TO IAH AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  IAH-  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE DIGITAL CONTROLLER, PERFORMED A OPERATIONAL CHECK AND NO DEFECTS NOTED.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS APPROVED FOR RETURN TO SERVICE.
