General Conventions

Hexadecimal numbers are presented with all letters in uppercase and a lowercase 'h' appended or
with a 0x at the beginning. For example, 0x14 and 03CAh are hexadecimal numbers. Binary
numbers are enclosed in single quotation marks when in text (for example, '11' designates a binary
number). Numbers not indicated by an 'h', 0x or quotation marks are decimal.
Registers are referred to by acronym, as listed in the tables on the previous page, with bits listed in
brackets MSB-to-LSB separated by a colon (:) (for example, CODR[7:0]), or LSB-to-MSB
separated by a hyphen (for example, CODR[0–2]).
The use of "tbd" indicates values that are "to be determined" "n/a" designates "not available," and
"n/c" indicates a pin that is a "no connect."
