Section G: Glossary
N
NAND
.
negative edge
A transition from a logic 1 to a logic 0. Also known as a falling edge.
net
The routing between devices.
nibble
A group of four bits, which is one-half of a byte.
noise
1. A disturbance that affects a signal and that may distort the information carried by the signal.
2. The random variations of one or more characteristics of any entity such as voltage, current,
or data.
NOR
.
NOT
.
O
OR
.
oscillator
A circuit that may be crystal controlled and is used to generate a clock frequency.
output
The electrical signal or signals which are produced by an analog or digital block.
P
parallel
The means of communication in which digital data is sent multiple bits at a time, with each simul-
taneous bit being sent over a separate line.
parameter
Characteristics for a given block that have either been characterized or may be defined by the
designer.
parameter block
A location in memory where parameters for the SSC instruction are placed prior to execution.
parity
A technique for testing transmitting data. Typically, a binary digit is added to the data to make the
sum of all the digits of the binary data either always even (even parity) or always odd (odd par-
ity).
path
1. The logical sequence of instructions executed by a computer.
2. The flow of an electrical signal through a circuit.
pending interrupts
An interrupt that has been triggered but has not been serviced, either because the processor is
busy servicing another interrupt or global interrupts are disabled.
phase
The relationship between two signals, usually the same frequency, that determines the delay
between them. This delay between signals is either measured by time or angle (degrees).
Phase-Locked Loop
(PLL)
An electronic circuit that controls an
so that it maintains a constant phase angle rela-
tive to a reference signal.
