Terminology

7.1

Conventions

The lowest analog and digital power supply voltage is called GND, which represents the

system ground. All voltage specifications for digital input/output pins are referred to GND.

the current flows into the pin and thus it is positive. Sourcing current means that the current

flows out of the pin and thus it is negative. A positive logic convention is used in all

equations.

Notations

Output bit streams of the modulator are indicated as bsV and bsC for voltage and current

channels, respectively.
