The following abbreviations are used to represent units of measure:
A amps, amperes
GByte gigabytes
KByte kilobytes
KΩ kilo-ohms
mA milliamps, milliamperes
MByte megabytes
MHz megahertz
ms milliseconds
mW milliwatts
ns nanoseconds

W watts
V volts
Signal names are shown in uppercase. When several signals share a common
name, an individual signal is represented by the signal name followed by a
number, while the group is represented by the signal name followed by a
variable (n). For example, the lower chip-select signals are named CS0#, CS1#,
CS2#, and so on; they are collectively called CSn#. A pound symbol (#)
appended to a signal name identifies an active-low signal. Port pins are
represented by the port abbreviation, a period, and the pin number (e.g., P1.0).
Advanced Digital Display Card – 2
an Intel graphics controller that supports ADD2+ cards. It plugs into a x16 PCI
Express* connector but uses the multiplexed SDVO interface. The card adds Video
In capabilities. This card will not work with an Intel graphics controller that supports
DVO and ADD cards. It will function as an ADD2 card in an ADD2-supported
system, but Video In capabilities will not work.
