Peripherals

This section covers the device peripherals and modules, and is intended to be used in addition to the information provided in the device-specific data sheet, TRM, and relevant Application Notes. The three types of documents should be used as follows:

  • Data Sheet: AC Timings, Guidance on pin functions, Pin mapping
  • TRM: Functional Description, Programming Guide, Register offsets
  • Application Notes: System-level understanding and issues
