Bus line polarity
Bus terminating resistor
The communication signal (information) is transferred symmetrically, i.e., as
voltage difference between the two bus lines (and not as a voltage difference to the
earthing potential). The sign preceding the voltage between DA+ and DA–
determines signal values 0 and 1.
