these documents are extensively referenced in the design guide, and should be consulted as specified in the
text.

1.3 Naming Conventions
Power supply and signal names used in the Data Book and other hardware-specific materials can be different
from those used on the reference schematics. This section shows the terms used in the System Design
Guide and the reference schematics, and correlates them with the hardware-specific names used elsewhere.
In general, the hardware symbols in the schematics show the hardware names for each item (signal or power
line). The alphanumeric marker at the connection between symbol and line is the ball number, described in
detail in the
Data Book . The line itself shows the schematic net name, i.e. the name that is used throughout
this document to refer to that net/signal/line.
Note
The block diagram and reference schematics included in this book offer general guidelines for integrating
TM5500/TM5800 processors into product designs. For detailed processor-specific information, consult the
reference documents listed below.
