About This Manual
Numbers Hexadecimal numbers are represented by a string of hexadecimal digits
followed by the character H. A zero prefix is added to numbers that begin
with A through F. (For example, FF is shown as 0FFH.) Decimal and
binary numbers are represented by their customary notations. (That is,
255 is a decimal number and 1111 1111 is a binary number. In some
cases, the letter B is added for clarity.)
Units of Measure The following abbreviations are used to represent units of measure:
A amps, amperes
GByte gigabytes
KByte kilobytes
Kohms kilo-ohms
mA milliamps, milliamperes
MByte megabytes
MHz megahertz
ms milliseconds
mW milliwatts
ns nanoseconds
pF picofarads
W watts
V volts
µA microamps, microamperes
µF microfarads
µs microseconds
µW microwatts
Signal Names Signal names are shown in uppercase. When several signals share a
common name, an individual signal is represented by the signal name
followed by a number, while the group is represented by the signal name
followed by a variable (n). For example, the lower chip-select signals are
named CS0#, CS1#, CS2#, and so on; they are collectively called CSn#.
A pound symbol (#) appended to a signal name identifies an active-low
signal. Port pins are represented by the port abbreviation, a period, and
the pin number (e.g., P1.0).
