In English, the term 'assert' can have more than one meaning.
Deassert has a specific meaning and is the opposite of assert for only one
of the uses of that word. In formal English there is no such word as
deassert - it is an invented word for technical purposes.
In this case I expect it means to set a logic output high (assert) or low
(deassert). However you have to read it in context.
It would actually be to set the *active* logic level ( often low ).
