DEFINITION
[0.3.37] CPU [0.3.38] Central Processing Unit
[0.3.40] A signal is deasserted when in the inactive
state. Active-low signal names have "_L" appended
to the end of the signal mnemonic. Active-high signal
[0.3.39] Deasser
names have no "_L" suffix. To reduce confusion when
ted
referring to active-high and active-low signals, the
terms one/zero, high/low, and true/false are not used
when describing signal states.
