Section G: Glossary
pin
A terminal on a hardware component. Also called lead.
pinouts
The pin number assignment: the relation between the logical inputs and outputs of the PSoC
device and their physical counterparts in the printed circuit board (PCB) package. Pinouts
involve pin numbers as a link between schematic and PCB design (both being computer gener-
ated files) and may also involve pin names.
port
A group of pins, usually eight.
positive edge
A transition from a logic 0 to a logic 1. Also known as a rising edge.
posted interrupts
An interrupt that has been detected by the hardware but may or may not be enabled by its mask
bit. Posted interrupts that are not masked become pending interrupts.
Power On Reset (POR)
A circuit that forces the PSoC device to reset when the voltage is below a pre-set level. This is
one type of
.
program counter
The instruction pointer (also called the program counter) is a register in a computer processor
that indicates where in memory the CPU is executing instructions. Depending on the details of
the particular machine, it holds either the address of the instruction being executed, or the
address of the next instruction to be executed.
protocol
A set of rules. Particularly the rules that govern networked communications.
PSoC
Cypress Semiconductor’s Programmable System-on-Chip (PSoC). PSoC® is a registered trade-
mark and Programmable System-on-Chip™ is a trademark of Cypress.
PSoC blocks
See
and
PSoC Designer
The software for Cypress’ Programmable System-on-Chip technology.
pulse
A rapid change in some characteristic of a signal (for example, phase or frequency), from a
baseline value to a higher or lower value, followed by a rapid return to the baseline value.
pulse width modulator
(PWM)
An output in the form of duty cycle which varies as a function of the applied measurand.
R
RAM
An acronym for random access memory. A data-storage device from which data can be read out
and new data can be written in.
register
A storage device with a specific capacity, such as a bit or byte.
reset
A means of bringing a system back to a know state. See
and
resistance
The resistance to the flow of electric current measured in ohms for a conductor.
revision ID
A unique identifier of the PSoC device.
ripple divider
An asynchronous ripple counter constructed of flip-flops. The clock is fed to the first stage of the
counter. An n-bit binary counter consisting of n flip-flops that can count in binary from 0 to 2
n
- 1.
