Signal names are shown in all uppercase type.
All signals are either high active or low active signals. A dash character (-) at the end
of a signal name indicates that the signal is low active. A low active signal is true when
it is below ViL and is false when it is above ViH. A signal without a dash at the end
indicates that the signal is high active. A high active signal is true when it is above ViH
and is false when it is below ViL.
When a signal is asserted, it means the signal is driven by an active circuit to its true
state.
When a signal is negated, it means the signal is driven by an active circuit to its false
state.
When a signal is released, it means the signal is not actively driven to any state. Some
signals have bias circuitry that pull the signal to either a true or false state when no
signal driver is actively asserting or negating the signal. These instances are noted
under the description of the signal.
