Numeric Representation

Hexadecimal numbers are appended with "h" (Intel assembly-style notation) whenever there is a risk of ambiguity. Other
numbers are in decimal.
Pins of identical functions but different running integers (e.g., "GFX_TX7P, GFX_TX6P,... GFX_TX0P") are referred to
collectively by specifying their integers in square brackets and with colons (i.e., "GFX_TX[7:0]P"). A similar short-hand
notation is used to indicate bit occupation in a register. For example, NB_COMMAND[15:10] refers to the bit positions
10 through 15 of the NB_COMMAND register.
1.6.4

Register Field

A field of a register is referred to by the format of [Register Name].[Register.Field]. For example,
"NB_MC_CNTL.DISABLE_BYPASS" is the "DISABLE_BYPASS" field of the register "NB_MC_CNTL."
