SECTION 2
SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
This section briefly describes the input and output signals. Table 2-1 provides a quick
reference for determining a signal’s pin number, its use as an input or output, whether it is
active high or low, and the section that contains more information about its operation.
NOTE
The terms assertion and negation will be used extensively to
avoid confusion when dealing with a mixture of "active low" and
"active high" signals. The term assert or assertion indicates
that a signal is active or true, independent of whether that level
is represented by a high or low voltage. The term negate or
negation indicates that a signal is inactive or false.
