PnP (Plug and Play) refers to a device that is fully compatible with the
industry standard Plug and Play ISA Specification. All bus-related
configuration is performed through software, freeing you from
manually configuring jumpers or switches to set the device base address
and interrupt level. PnP systems automatically arbitrate and assign
system resources to a PnP product.
(1) a communications connection on a computer or a remote controller
(2) a digital port, consisting of four or eight lines of digital input and/or

random-access memory
the smallest signal increment that can be detected by a measurement
system. Resolution can be expressed in bits, in proportions, or in
percent of full scale. For example, a system has 12-bit resolution, one
part in 4,096 resolution, and 0.0244% of full scale.
